so far my sidecar performes and works well. It runs in a straight line and the brakes do what I want.
The manufacturer has a few pictures from the building on his page www.stern-gespannservice.de.
There is no paint on front of the sidecar - they moulded the shape of the ZX 14 air intake to the sidecar. I was thinking about an air-intake for the passengers. maybe next winter.
The exhaust is BSM netherlands. site is www.bsm-exhausts.com
On a (right hand) sidecar you want the exhaust on the left, because you first need the space to bring the sidecar close to the bike (dont like a vehicle with too much trackwidth), and second reason is that sometimes exhaust fumes are sucked into the sidecar.
And of course: a Honda civic is more comfortable and has less fuel consumption. And this weekend I can enjoy with bingo, some tea and a good book. But I go for a 24 hour race (see www.harz-ring.de for our results) with the friends and have some beer as well.

...asthetically speaking, it'd be interesting if the sidehack had the more organic shape of the ZX14 instead of the creased look of its present design...still, what a cool looking ride! ____________ “We sleep safe in our beds because rough men

Worm I agree. I think it should've been more rounded with the air intake up on the blue part, and 4 headlights with the two running lights.
I really would like to see what it would run like without the car, and those crazy tires and front end.

It wouldn't. That front end is for side car use only. Same as my Ural.

Wow now that's what I call being different. That thing should be in a magazine. I see you painted the side car candy thunder blue I think. I would love to see the 14 with those huge tires on it's own with no side car. Now that would trip people out here. Nice work I could never fabricate anything even close. Wierd at first then respect at the workmanship after looking a bit. Actually I think it's wicked nice job. Oh can you please post a pic of that on a wheelie please !!!!!! I would pay for that lol.

I just want the rear tire and wheel for drag racing..I dont think hook would be a problem LOL
But it would be a cool way to carry 3 passengers
