I have had two members ask me for pics about mounting a sidecar to the Valk.  Here is the only one that i have left.  Hope that this helps.

Perhaps Mike who bought my Motorvation can help too.

wayne,

nice rig!
a Valk is a good tug for sure, no power deficiencies.
Even if you don't like sidecar rigs, anyone who gets a chance to drive one should give it a shot.
They are a lot of fun and can haul anything.

Both of them have contacted me and I am in the process of helping as much as I can. Would be nice to see another Valkyrie or two with sidecars.

I enjoyed the post from you Wayne about the tornado watch!

Safe winds to all,

Trying to post sidecar. I can't use photostash and don't know how to use my photo bucket.  Sorry.

Any chance of getting a Mod to give the "Hacks" a  separate area?  Lost of stuff relating to installing/riding them are not of much interest to the general 1500 forum.  There's a couple threads going on now that will roll off the front page(s), seldom to be found again.

Just my $0.02.

Dreamchaser,
I am the one who bought that sidecar from Wayne. Yes, it is still available. It is made by Motorvation and the model is Spyder. The unique thing about this model is that it has a monocoque frame. There is no exterior frame on the body of the sidecar. Motorvation is in Sibley, Iowa. Good people that make a very good product. I am getting ready to take mine on a 4 week trip and do about 4,500 miles. Feel free to contact me if you like.

Yes, the monocoque construction made it harder to do assembly and alignment but it sure makes a neat looking rig.  Mike, i imagine you also had a problem with the same but the 'car is really doing a nice job for you, especially with the Brookline fold down windshield and the Korean dragon,  cooldude

I don't have the rig, Mike has the sidecar and L'll D has the tug but both of them ,under new ownership, keep gallivantin' on.

There's gotta be a story there somewhere Smiley
