Yep. Sidecars are way cooler than trikes.

I agree was going to try a trike but just can’t let my sidecar go.

I am not telling anyone to try this just providing information. I made a change in the rear lower mount and tweaked the alignment a bit. I have been riding it most of the winter .
Road conditions have limited extreme testing. Tuesday it was another 56 degree day and roads were clear. After some highway riding at 60-70 mph and all was good stepped it up.
At 90MPH I let it cruise a bit and it was fine. Ran it between 70-80 on and off for a while and had no issues. Caused by the setup.
I did make a slight rider error that was a reminder. at about 75 changing from right lane to left while approaching a cure. Street back straight after the lane change, cause a feeling of the car getting light and heavy steering. Backed off corrected no problem.
Just a judgement error on my part.
There is no doubt what so ever, the Street 750 handles this sidecar better than my EVO Fatboy did.
