I have a 1971 Triumph T100C I am putting together. Looking for a small light sidecar for it. Only problem is I need something I can still be able to kick start the bike. Does any one know of a hack that will do this?
Thanks
Jeff

Thank you will have to check them out. It will be a while but want to get some ideas. Since my Harley rig is my only transportation and I am going to be building a torque monster motor for it I have to get up something else to ride when I take it apart. I have my old T100c I have been working on for years and need to get it together before I take my Harley apart. My 02 rig only has 94,000 miles on it so it will be a while but need to get my Triumph running.

Most of the power coating is done. I have the head done other then getting some new valve springs and putting it together. I have MANY new parts for it. Bottom end is ready. Sorry to say the front end was in really bad shape so I have to just about replace most of it but the trees and lower legs.

Most any sidecar can be mounted with a kick start bike, You just have to plan out what you are doing when you design the mounts.

Thanks Lonnie and Jay. What would really be cool is a Velorex 560! That way it would be same period as my Triumph.

I like this. It is a 1971 Daytona. I know it is a Jawa hack made by Velorex does any one know what model it is?

The is the Jawa or Velorex 560, Much better quality frame then the new Velorex sidecars.

Thanks if I could have seen the fender I would have know as I am still learning. I hear the 560 are hard to find and in much demand so the prices are high but if I could that would be the hack I would put on my little Triumph. Wish I could see the mounting and how they did it.
Thanks
Jeff

Another sidecar for you to look for that often come up fairly cheap are the early Spirit Eagle sidecars, Similar lines and size.
