Sidecar was added to the bike when the bike had about 12,000 miles on it, so the Rocket has pulled this sidecar

about 13,000 miles. I had the sidecar on my 2002 MotoGuzzi for about 10,000 miles before switching it to the Rocket.

The sidecar was build in my shop in 2018. Here is the link to the online build on

The above link also includes the build of the leading link front end.

I built the subframe to attach the car to the Rocket in 2020 and my wife and I have enjoyed many miles in the rig. It also has a trailer hitch and trailer wiring in the rear in case you want to pull a camping or utility trailer. We have enjoyed this rig immensly and now want someone else to enjoy it. I have several other bikes to ride, including a 76 BMW that I may add a sidecar to in the future. If the pictures don't explain everything then contact me at:

Tim Mitchell  @toolittletime, ya know.....it's  only 729 miles (shortest route) from  your  house to the  USCA National  Sidecar  Rally in  Iuka, Mississippi,  June 6 through 9.

That  would be  a great  place to show your  rig, for  sale,  and let potential buyers  have a look see, as they  say  in Texas.

And.....Jan Daub,  El Presidente' of the  USCA Sidecar  Association  will also  be driving  his Triumph  Rocket lll rig, named The Warthog, to the  Rally  to offer it up for sale. 

Jan only lives a few miles east of  you,  so...........

Be there, or be square  friday

@miles-ladue 

Just had some surgery, so I won't be going anywhere for a while.   Yes, I had the rig at the Mena Arkansas rally a few years ago.....and have talked with Jan many times before he was building the Warthog and after.  I just have too many bikes now and need to free up some room. The Triumph Rocket has an awesome amount of power for a sidecar rig.  Rather than give it away, I would just keep her.

Any way to post pictures here?

Tim

@ned 

They were out of wide tires when I went to the wide tire store, so I had to settle.
