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!

Updates Coming for 2022 BMW K1600 Models

Tue, 05 Oct 2021

Euro 5 updates and more for six-cylinder K bikes The R18 Transcontinental and R18 Bagger have been getting a lot of attention lately, as BMW‘s foray into large-displacement cruiser touring segment. Getting somewhat lost, however, are BMW’s existing K1600 range, which used to be the company’s representatives in the touring category. While still part of BMW’s lineup, the six-cylinder models have not been updated since the 2017 model year, not even receiving any changes to meet Euro 5 standards that came into effect last year.

Small Adventure Bike, Big Adventure Dreams

Thu, 15 Feb 2024

The long-term KTM 390 ADV Project Photos by Joe Jackson If you’ve had a pulse the last five years or so, you’ve noticed the urge to take two wheels into the dirt has swept through the motorcycle community like a rogue wave. Riders across age ranges, experience levels and even financial demographics have turned to off-road, not instead of, but in addition to any and all riding they were previously doing. So it’s no surprise to see small-sized ADV bikes plodding along behind the surge like the sure-footed mules that they are.
