BMW R18 with Hannigan Arrow

Man, what a brute!
Gotta wonder two things right off the bat. 1. How hard is it to steer? 2. How many miles do you get from a rear tire?
Though I see from the specs that the rear rim is a 5x16 so you'd think a 205/55-16 or a 195/60-16 car tire would fit.
Drone has it.
Steering. Would it need modifying?
Maybe an awesome rig .
If you don't mind the service costs.
Man, what a brute!

Actually, the very first thing that came to my mind was....if the seller of this BMW R18/Hannigan Arrow rig had opted for the Arrow Elite, then it would have a DOOR in the side of the sidecar for his or her passenger monkey to easily enter/exit the sidecar, rather than being a gymnast, and climbing over that threshold.

If the owner is a single guy, there may be a method to his madness. 😉
"Yes Grandma. I'd be more than happy to take you to bingo Wednesday night." "Grocery store run? Sure Grandma my pleasure". "Beauty Salon appointment on Thursday, I've got it on the calendar." "You've got a friend with a Grand daughter... oh boy 😯. No, no problem Grandma, I'd love to..."
For Sale!!!!! Only driven to Bingo, the mall, the store, and one really bad date.
Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃

Keep the sidecar rig....ditch the Grandma.

My first thought was someone really wants all their money back...
I have seen R18's for sale new at a local dealer for under $10k, as recently as a year ago (last time I went into a dealer showroom!) I imagine he spent less than $20k with Hannigan.
That said, the R18 is an intriguing tug, if you prefer to Bring More Wrenches!
Wait... I was assured by the BMW sales guy it was Bring More Wenches!
Awe man, this just isn't fair. 
I'm buying a Honda!

Hello to all the Armchair Navigators……
Its Mine & For Sale on Complete Rigs For Sale, asking $20k
I am a Single / Straight Guy, but Trust Me, I’ve had Ladies from 85 to 15 jump in this thing for a ride.
If you are Not Dead, you can get in and Love every mile!
My German Born Neighbor says (tongue in cheek) BMW means: Bavarian Manure Wagon.
It’s a Brute alright, and those 1,800 cc’s move the hack along like it isn’t even there, and with the ECC,
it runs down the Interstate just like a Torpedo: Hot, Straight & Normal! I’ve been up to 85 mph!
Each to their own, but by mentioning speeds have you opened a can of worms, just the odd chuckle from me =)
My 1995 wing has been close to that with no issues to speak of apart from fast enough for me

Well, now you've done it....you made Steve reply about speed.
I say, your BMW R18 sidecar rig is just barely faster than a modern Ural......yeah.....I said that. 
As for you ferrying ladies from 85 to 15......ha, I say.
Mine has ferried ladies from 101 years old to a pair of 5 year old twins, and......riding solo I have ridden it at speeds well in excess of a TON.
All that said, I do like your R18 sidecar rig, and at the new LOW price of $ 20k, it should sell quickly.

Any room for tall folks (6'3") to put their feet - on my old 2005 GS I managed to add some extra foot rests below/forward of cyclinders. I do like it too !

@1bmwmc, a trick I found with most sidecar rigs is that you can use the sidecar mounts on the right side of the bike to place your gigantica feet, using those mounts as highway pegs, so to speak.
I ride 99% of my miles with my feet on either highway pegs, or in the case of my sidecar rigs, with my right foot on the forward sidecar mount, between the bike and the sidecar. So, let's call it the "strut" that is horizontal.
