Default 2 wheel drive w/sidecar

This is not a harley but interesting. They sell others with sidecars but this model in particular has 2 wheel drive for handling poor road conditions.

Interesting rig, 2 wheel drive, selectable drive shaft for sidecar.

Don't know about the 65 MPH top speed, afraid it'll get run over on our interstates.
750 cc, pushing 700+ pounds, I'd like at least a thousand cc.

They call me "Hack" because of the sidecar, not the amputated leg.

Yep, I had one for a few months in Iraq. It was a blast and started lots of conversations. It was two wheel drive with the reverse. Once you got used to it, it was pretty neat.

Check the website to find if you have a local dealer if you want one. So happens we have one locally. I just wonder on the availability of parts. I bet they make them easy to work on since motorcycle mechanics are few and far between where they are in use around the world.

I take it that you don't have it anymore.

Nope, it went to some good guys, though. I gave it to a SF team that had several folks that rode. They were attempting to get it back to the states. I hope they were successful.
