2017 Sim S - Sidecar Mod
After 45 years of continuous motorcycling and ... two recent drops, my wife of 42 "wonderful years" suggested it was time to go to three wheels. So, I did what any good husband would do, I listened. (not my usual response)
Bombardier CanAm Spyder - no f'n way (no offence, but not a motorcycle)
I had an '05 Superglide in the garage. Perfect! I bought a TransMoto sidecar (Canadian supplier) and drove it for two years. Loved it; learned what riding a sidecar was all about. But damn it, what a waste of a Superglide Sport and it just didn't look right.
So ... believing it just might be my last motorcycle, I bought a 2017 Softail Slim S, in army green.
Aside: I'm a Canadian. For most of my career I've worked for US companies. I love the US: their businesses; their friendship; their PROTECTION. So I sprung for the US army paint.
So who the hell puts a sidecar on the Slim S? No one (as far as I could tell). So, back to Metalmorphasis' Brock Smith in Kamloops BC. A genius. Put together an awesome frame, beautifully mated to the new softail. I can't do his work justice, its artwork.
so now, I have a sidecar mounted to a Slim S ... and I love it!

1. Can you pass my info to Brock?
2. Ballpark cost?
3. Did you already have a sidecar, just needed the custom frame?
Thanks

Problem is she's in a wheelchair so hoping on the back is out of the question. Iv brought the idea of a sidecar to her and she loves it. So how much money am I looking at and who do I get in touch with to make it happen.
