Hello Gang,
Unless the deal falls through, it looks like I will have a 2003 silver and burgundy Road Star with a color matched 2-seater Bimmer sidecar. To replace the rig I lost before Christmas. The bike has 42k [42 000KMS] on the odometer but is showroom clean, and the colormatched sidecar is new. Wish me luck!

OK I got you, in my neck of the woods we call them a Chang Jiang 750 Sidecar. Sort of a Chinnese copy of a 1938 BMW, I like the rumble rear seat.

This is the company I got my first rig from, and where I am getting my newest one from. They just moved into a bigger location with a better equiped machine shop and paint booth.

I won a $300.00 coupond from Trans Moto at the USCA national last summer. Would you like it?

It is a Chang Jaing (Chaing Jang?) obviously re-named by Trans Moto. They are cool sidecars with the body sprung by half leaf springs rather than rubber like a Ural sidecar. We have imported a couple of them from Jimbo's Classic Sidecars, a site sponsor here. One was raffled off at the ISOK Sidecar RON DEE VOO last year.
See attached picture of sidecar and also frame.

Its a phenominal sidecar. Its a sidecar you are not worried about scratching. You can just have fun with it.
