Hello all. I need some help. I was given a basket case of a sidecar. I have the insurance paper from when it last ran. It says Manufacturer is ZhoZhou? Does ANYONE have ANY information on this thing? It may be a fun project but not if I can’t get parts. 

I currently ride a 32yo BMW GSPD. 

anybody? Please?

You have to post a picture or two.  It's easy.  Just copy any picture you have and paste it into a post.  You can even use the Edit button to paste the pics into Post #1.

And just as an aside, I'm expecting to see pictures of an ordinary (and common) Chang Ziang 750.  I think some of them were made by Zhuzhou Shenzhou Technology Co. which could be just an Americanized version of ZhoZhou.

There's a guy on here who knows everything there is to know about CJ's.  His user name is Jimbo I think, and he has a website --->

But, let's see the pics first!

That one image you posted of the numbered tag makes me think it's a CJ750B.

Check out this BAT auction. [LINK]   Is this the same as yours?

I think so.

 

Just imagine.  Put 1000 hours into restoring it and yours can look that way too!

I love BAT as long as I don’t think I can actually bid. That bike looks pretty damn close though it lacks the classic patina like mine 😅 What a beautiful machine. Since your selling your project do you want to sell me any service manuals, wiring diagrams, parts catalogs and winning Powerball numbers? I’ve exchanged emails with Jim. I’m starting to become excited. 😃
