First off, just want to introduce myself before I go and ask a bunch of questions. My name is Chans and I live in Modesto (around there) California. I ride a Triumph Thruxton and a Triumph Bonnie (well, the bonnie is the wifes bike but I still take it out once in a while!) Anyway, I just purchased an American Spirit sidecar and want to get it going so that my 5 year old daughter can start enjoying the rides.

Ok, so my question is this...........does anyone know of a shop that can handle fab work and or installing the sidecar to my Triumph? It would be nice if there is someone local but I can travel to Sacramento or south to Fresno areas.

Thanks for anyones advice and I will eventualy post up some pictures of the beast when I get the project off the ground.

Thanks,
Chans

Anyone have any ideas? I will travel to Sacramento or all the way down to Fresno for a person who can work on sidecars.

Thanks,
Chans

Don't know of any sidecar shops in the Central Valley.
South there's Sidestrider in Van Nuys, CA
We're North in Boise, ID.
If you find a shop to do the job you may have to be willing to trailer your bike farther than Sacto or Fresno.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I have talked to Dauntless and I more than likely will be purchasing the proper attatchments. As for the dealer in Modesto, I will give them a shot.

Thanks again and feel free to give some more advice if anything comes up.

Cheers,
Chans

I went through Dauntless and now have my sidecar almost complete. They (Dauntless) shipped me everything I needed to fab/mount my hack. The last thing I have to do now is just attatch the two together (bike to the sidecar)........and then the fun begins with adjusting, etc etc.

Cheers,
Chans
