With your current fittings it will obviously fit any of the later shovel bikes, pre-rubber mount, but I reckon it could be adapted to fit others. There are dealers and organisations we have already mentioned above who can probably give you advice. I suspect a keen sidecar buff will be able to overcome any challenges in fitting it to a more modern bike!

Curious minds wanna know!
Charley go to the sidecarforum and join. In the classafieds there is a guy selling a Liberty side car unpainted in the crate. He took dlivery then got ill. Still in the crate in Colorado. The price is close to what he paid but no wait time. Its already set up for a softail. I called Liberty today and they are about 6 months out. Seting up a change to a touring model is a little pricey so I opted out.

Charley,
Champion makes sidecars. Four of them and the only requirement they list is engine size from 750cc and up to 1000cc and up depending on which model you pick. No mention of make or model. They have a picture of one on a Heritage.

My friend has a Ural sidecar mounted to an early 2000's DynaSport. Took a little fabricating, but it looks great and suits his needs very well. Prior to this setup, he had a Velorex that he bought from an Indie.

Sidecars are a blast and I would not give up driving a rig for anything. Now with that said before you get too involved I recommend reading all you can about driving one that is right as you do not ride a rig you drive it and how it handles. Rig are not for everyone.
