I could not figure out how to drop the double fold ramp on my build, your solution is simple and effective. Well done Sir.

The gas shock is for a lift gate on a minivan. Sold in different lengths at the local auto parts places.

Are you running a brake on the sidecar?

[@Guzzilunatic]

Yes. I used a front master cyl off of a dual disc front end HD to run both the bikes rear brake and the sidecar brake. I had initially planned to add a splitter valve to balance the braking forces, but it tracks straight under braking so there was no need for the valve. The rear wheel of the bike has been converted to a disc brake wheel. In this case it was off of a HD but there are many lower cost disc brake wheels that I could have used.

Do you happen to sale a sidecar for wheelchair motorcycle?

[@Guzzilunatic]

I make each project for specific individuals. I don't keep anything on hand. I am located in Watertown South Dakota and am happy to build whatever you need though. I post the videos so that, if you have a local shop, they can do the work right in your town.

Why on earth didn’t you get on the bike and ride it

[@Guzzilunatic]

It was built for a person in a wheel chair. Them getting on the bike and riding it was not an option.
