Just to point out I have no link to the seller, I spotted this while trawling Fleabay and thought it may be of interest to a Muppet, sure seems a lot of bike for £3k.

Normally you would lower the gearing when fitting a sidecar, I wonder what it does to the gallon with 3 people on board and how good the brakes are under that load, I've ridden a few combo's but never wanted to own one, in the 60's a chap would get banned and buy an outfit or put a chair on his bike so he could still get around, I would ride it for him only as a last resort.
