Has anyone done business with Champion SidecarCo (championsidecarco.com)? They have several used sidecars listed on their website that interest me. I was curious as to how they are to deal with.
They no longer build sidecars but their reputation as a builder and their cars in general was top notch. I’m going to tag @miles-ladue for specific experience with them in the process.

I think he is speaking about a different entity. I have looked at the same site, seems a bit sketchy. No physical address, many used tubs that have been listed for over a year, and they refer to themselves as champion and also motorvation randomly on their site. I never investigated any further though.They no longer build sidecars but their reputation as a builder and their cars in general was top notch.

- Lots of recycled pics off other company's pages im pretty sure its a scam site they were also on facebook
Donald, here are the facts, rather than speculation...

They are still in business, however now they only make 3 of the sidecars, where they used to make 6.
I was 100 percent happy with them, when in 2020 they made a new Daytona 2+2 Sidecar for my 2006 Honda Goldwing, which is now owned by the Sidecar Association President....some Shrek looking character, named Thane.
Champion Sidecars did as close to perfection as can be expected, and I didn't need to correct anything from their installation.
Yes, they still make sidecars, and they make REVERSE gear transmissions for your Ultra Classic.
No Stroopwaffles were consumed during this posting

They list several Harley factory tubs for sale at nice prices, including one with electric reverse that the factory did offer, but I can't tell if the one they show is oem. Just too many red flags for me.
@sidecarusa That's the vibe I'm getting. Thanks for the feedback! 👍
Okay, I went to that Championsidecarsco.com website, only because Chris @not-bob threatened to take away my monthly supply of Stroopwaffles.....and whilst it might be worth checking them out, a thorough investigation.
I can say with absolute certainty, some of their intro pictures are stolen from other websites, or from the hacks threads on ADVRider, because I see Mike Paull's bike in there.
My "guess" is that the former owners of Motorvation Sidecars has opened an online used Sidecar website.

They got blasted on facebook recently for fishy activities
Well, I am puzzled. I was under the impression that Champion only made trikes at present. Good to know.

Champion trikes of arizona is for sale too
Okay, I have sent an e-mail to this Championsidecarco.com company, and the hope is to find out if they are real, or fake.
Here is what I sent to them this morning:
