Are there 3 Seater Sidecars??? Help !!
We need more room!!! What is out there for options for a 3 seater we will outgrow our Friendship 3 next yr and want room for 3 growing kids. What are the school bus, taxi or woody style cars i have seen?? Is is possible to take our body off and build a larger body or make ours bigger ect??? I am very handy but need to know what is possbile before trying it sometimes..lol

Contact Doug Bingham at www.side-strider.com. He builds the school bus types. He also had a 4 passenger Watsonian on his website at one time. Might be cheaper to teach mama to drive a rig and become a two bike family. :0)
Doug Bingham at Sidestrider can set you up with the caravan style sidecars you are talking about. He also carries the Watsonian marque, which includes some huge hacks in the model line.
I am pretty sure Dauntless, Liberty, Hannigan and Champion all have doublewides available...
SCMike beat me to the keyboard again 🙂 I like his idea 'bout getting a second rig!
No second rig option, she has no interest and we have seen to many women beginning to ride get killed or hurt. There has to be a way to take off the body of ours and make a body or enlarge ours to save a bunch of $$ ...Options??
Kramer,
Did you look in the Classifieds? IT looks like this might be exactly what you're looking for...

I have no interest in going back to an old goldwing. I have the bike I want now I just need the right car. I thought for sure there were some folks on here that have modified their car into being larger??

Do you know a good fiberglass person? I would think you could extend the trunk a bit to the back and put a rumble seat in there.
And it should be easy to lift the body off and have someone construct something like a Busmar for your frame.
I built one of those coach bodies a couple of years ago. It bolted to our Motorvation FormulaII frame. Saftey glas windshield, sliding windows from a VW bus on the sides, car seat, rear trunk made from a dryer door....use your imagination. Not hard and a fun project. Note that the hardest part is keeping the weight down.
Also, as mentioned earlier in this thread contact Doug Bingham at sidestrider. Call , don't email. He will be a ton of help.
