WOW.....whatΒ  a fantasticΒ  rig.Β 

Jan, IΒ  knew youΒ  had the Warthog, but carefullyΒ  reading theΒ  entireΒ  ad/resume listed above,Β  and realizing it appearsΒ  youΒ  might beΒ  sellingΒ  it, IΒ  honestlyΒ  expected toΒ  see an asking priceΒ  aroundΒ  $ 20k.

For a low, low asking priceΒ  of only $ 10,800.00, that is a steal.

Have priced it at what my wife thinks I have spent on it.... if she only knew what my real cost was. I keep telling her sidecars are a breakeven hobby.Β 

Am trading in my Stealth Camping merit badge for a Holiday Inn Express Frequent Flyers card. Thank for the compliments, the time has come to pass the adventure torch on to a younger sidecarist.Β

When I mentioned the price you put on it, Karen IMMEDIATELY asked if there was some kind of intent in my comment.Β  I had to inform her that the Warthog was not a two passenger conveyance.

That would be a very good thing. You know the way! lol... The clock keeps ticking in one direction only though, dang it. Wish I'd have got some better photos when you were here but we spent nearly all the time visiting before the three of you left for Dave and Billie's to spend the night.

Gawd!Β  What a beast!Β  And for half price!Β  Miracles do happen.

I have a few questions.Β  First is, to show my ignorance, what's that thing in the attached pic?

Next, what's the track width from the outside of the sidecar tire to the outside of the pusher?

Finally, when the Mini-Mate is all folded down and closed up, is it 100% full of tent and mattress, or is there room inside there for storage of additional stuff?

Fantastic rig!

Drone, was waiting for someone to notice that.

The OEM plastic radiator overflow container sat in front of the new RAMAIR filter blocking the flow. Other R3 owners shared their find of this stainless inexpensive cylinder that could be mounted on the engine guard. Note the left tube has green antifreeze fluid in it, the right tube is the cylinder overflow line. Inside this cylinder are two tubes of different heights to control the antifreeze level inside. Simple and effective.Β 

This overflow cylinder is mounted behind the engine guard, protected from road debris or impact.

Another one of the little tweaks made to keep the overall rig simple yet improve overall performance.

Man I guess this the end of an era for sure. A fantastic price for a buyer and a genuine one of a kind.

Days are warming up. Don't miss out on acquiring a one-of-a-kind adventure travel rig. Now priced at $10,8000 OBO.

Want to travel two up? Β The original passenger seat comes with the rig. Remove the aux fuel cell, install the passenger seat and you are on your way.

Want to travel with the whole family? Remove the sidecamper tub, mount it on the original axle and wheels which you get when buying the rig. Pick up a used passenger tub and tow hitch for the R3. Β Mount the new tub where the sidecamper tub was. Hitch the camper to the bike and you're set to go.

And I was thinking it was a whiskey flask all along...

Post-Rally price for the WartHog, $9,400. It ran fantastic at the Mississippi rally. Is very planted and solid on the road, one-handed cruising is comfortable and very doable. No pulling toward or away from the tub like many rigs.

Will listen to trade and delivery offers...

one never knows what comes tomorrow.
