New rig build
Posted by: @dave-mc@miles-ladue looking for a nice use one would be awesome. Went up to Keene New Hampshire and talked with a bike shop who is a hannigan dealer and came up with a price for one of there models with a couple add one and it was about $16000.00 a little more than I want to spend on a maybe 😁😁😁. So yes a nice complete use sidecar for the right price would be awesome. If anything up in the Connecticut area comes up that would be great
One more thing, David @dave-mc
That price from the dealer in Keene, NH, on ordering a Hannigan sidecar for you, and installing it to your F6B....that $ 16,000.00 is NOT out of line.
If that price includes everything it should include, then the price is basically correct.
An all-in price SHOULD include installing new trail reducing triple trees on the front of your F6B, so that it steers right. That price should also include FULL and COMPLETE installation of the Hannigan sidecar to your bike, including PROPER wiring of the bike/sidecar connection.
Believe me when I say...90+ % of shops that install sidecars to motorcycle, do a very bad job of the wiring of the bike and sidecar connection. It takes an experienced person that CARES to do the job right, and not butcher the OEM wiring harness on your F6B, with proper connectors, proper routing of the wires, proper sheathing of all wires, proper heat shrink coverage.....snd again (not a joke) more than 90 % of shops do it wrong.
They may get all the lights on the bike and sidecar to function at the moment you pick up the sidecar rig from them, but don't you dare look under the seat of the bike, at the rats nest they left under there from all their wiring crap....as it will greatly upset you.
Lastly, exactly...precisely....which Hannigan Sidecar was it your were getting a quite on ?????????
