Answer 5

I did, A friend bought a 2006 Harley Davidson Ultra with a side car from a guy in San diego California. I flew down and rode it back to Idaho for him. They handle different thru the corners obviously, but it was still a lot of fun. Some day when I get too old to ridea bike safely, I'm gonna add a side car and keep riding till I drop dead.

ride safe

Answer 6

Test rode a Ural about a year ago, it was an interesting ride.

Answer 7

no, but a buddy has a ural ive been meaning to go try out sometime though... it's even 2wd

Answer 8

Yes, a while ago now. It was a Norton Dominator 99 that was hitched to a German Steib sidecar. Riding a motorcycle with a sidecar hookup is like learning to ride all over again. You can lift the wheel of the sidecar quite easily if you go into a bend too fast, and taking a corner to briskly can upend the whole thing altogether. You've got to remember to lean into the direction of the sidecar when you're making a left turn. Once you master the technique, however, you can get pretty adept with the thing and set quite a good pace.

Answer 9

Never have.  Some states are requiring a different test for side car rigs, since they handle so differently from a plain motorcycle.

Oh and they require different skills for your dog, too.

Re: dragging the Yugo. I drive a Fiat 128 for 67,000 miles, that ought to prove SOMETHING.  Perhaps, how foolish I was when I was younger, more than anything.
