The step support tube had been hacksawed off some other frame at some point. To re-attach, I figured a solid slug with the appropriate diameters on ea...

My sidecar frame is new enough that Harley no longer included the step support tube. But at the same time it is old enough that the frame casting stil...

I had been thinking of making a step like Harley would have sold for these later models. But another option has developed. I acquired a broken old Har...

Windshield done. Mrs. lended a steady hand during the drilling 😀. This tub appeared to never have had a shield in the past. I think I should ...

The wheel took .130 worth of shims! I ran out of shims and had to dig up something out of my washer box that had correct inner and outer diameters. An...

Got new bearings and seals today. Put the wheel assembly back together and test mounted. Torqued axle nut to spec and it behaved much better this time...

@egray It's very possible a warped spoke rim can be trued. Depends on how damaged it is, of course. I'd look to a motorcycle repair shop that deals...

@randy-davison Thanks for the close-up! Did you connect that spot lamp to the ones on the bike? I'll bet that looks like a real beast coming down...

That's cool Randy. Your hack does look newer than mine. I see you've got the single leaf springs. Sits nice and low. That bracket up front, that the s...

Does the frame need to be stamped as a 69? It was the same for years otherwise.  

Thanks! Not my best work, but it's not bad. I experimented using cable ferrules on all the wire ends... overkill for these connector pins, but were he...

All bike side work completed. All lights functional. I had to make several electrical harnesses, here's the one that adapts to the existing bike harne...

I have to point out, this rig would weigh in somewhere around 850 lbs, NOT including the rider, or monkey/cargo in the tub. Bike was labeled with a ...

Ok, been a while, but I came to the conclusion that the 87114-93A rear mount that I had will not work for my 97. That's goofy because Harley always sa...

Thanks! I’ll re-torque after a few miles. Next is the rear bracket, 87114-93A replacing the right passenger footboard bracket. It bolts in place fine,...
