Quote from SwampFox on May 24, 2018, 8:26 amGeoff, a few years ago, I studied on mounting a sidecar to my R850R, and preferred these two options:
1. Tripteq from Holland: http://tripteq.com/en/ Designed specifically for oilheads. Good option for a do-it-yourself installation, but I'm not aware of an importer in the USA.
2. Hannigan Sprint - their base model without an top-opening hatch - should be good match of size, weight and style to the Roadster bikes.
There are other just-as-good options depending on personal preference. I never completed the R-project as I stumbled upon our R1100GS/CSM rig while studying the combination.
Keep in mind our R bikes to not have a perimeter frame, so a proper subframe is required to mount a sidecar.

Feel free to contact me before you buy a used sidecar, I can tell you what to look for and what will be needed to install it on your bike. We also offer steering modification as well as an automotive rear wheel conversion and of course we make many models of sidecars suitable for your bike.
