BMW K-Series description
Have you ever said to yourself, "I'd really like a sidecar, but it needs to look
like something out of Mad Max!"
Today's your lucky day! Due to illness in the family, I'm looking for a new home for my 1987
BMW K100 sidecar rig. This is a totally custom rig, fabricated by Claude
Stanley Motorsports in Pennsylvania. It has an EML leading link front
end, and rims that mount car tires all around, resulting in much better
handling as a sidecar rig.
The thing that sets this rig apart from other sidecars is that this one has an anti-sway bar, which
keeps the handling flat in turns. This is a hardcore sidecar rig, and
you shouldn't ride it if you don't like talking to people, because
EVERYONE wants to talk to you, and see what the h#ll that thing is! Three separate times I've been stopped by women who asked for rides, something that's never happened in all my years of riding a solo motorcycle.
This rig is good on the
highway, and has a trailer
hitch too. My wife and I drove it 1300 miles through the Smoky Mountains,
pulling a utility trailer with all of our camping gear in it. It's rock solid, and I wouldn't hesitate to ride it anywhere! These early K100's are bullet proof, and were so overbuilt that turbo kits can be fitted without changing anything in the engine.
The sidecar was originally constructed as a cargo box to carry camping gear, and comes with a lid to seal it again if you want to use it for cargo only. I have a seat and windshield mounted for passenger use at present.
You will never run into anyone else riding a rig like this! For half the price of an ancient technology Ural, you get a high performance sidecar rig that can run rings around any other sidecar rig you might meet!

Video: Corvette Stingray Take on All Corners of the Globe at Willow Springs
