Mounting Sidecar on Triumph Rocket

That guy rides that rig all over the place like that Claude and he said it handles fine. He is crazier than I am.

That's all fine and well until he needs to make a quick evasive maneuver or whatever. Of course maybe there is added weight and maybe the mounts are reinforced and so forth. With modification I could see this being okay but many times we see pictures on th enet that give an impression that is not a good on. They say a picture is worth a thousand words but the words that are birthed by the picture may or may not be accurate. Bottom line: Sidecar mus tbe suitable for th ebike as wel as mounts and suspension and all that goes along with it. Cozy on Rocket 3
In stock form...no way.

Not to get too far off topic...
But could anyone please identify the fairing on that R3?
TIA
looks like its off a triumph sprint
A belated thank you to both DirtyDR and Sidcar for the photos. Because of the issues with the kit supplied I ran out of time last winter to attach the sidecar so this is now a 2015/2016 winter project.

Not only is he crazy, he's also riding on borrowed time. Hooking a Cozy to a Rocket III is like towing a 30' camper trailer with a Smart Car; it is completely the wrong vehicle for the job.
Before I bought the Liberty for my FLH, a guy tried to sell me a Cozy for it. I told him it wasn't the right one. He said, "It'll be fine, just mount it further out from the bike." I didn't.
