I don't know what all is involved but I can tell you that the Electraglide frame changed so you would need a connection kit for 2009 and later. Then you may run into a problem hooking up your disc brake system to the drum brakes on the car. I don't think they changed the mounting points on the car side, but I would check into that too. A good resource is Ronnie's HD

Try looking up 1991 sidecar (they don't show a 1993) and a 2009 sidecar and see what the differences are.

To mikekielty -Newer H-D sidecar setups use a double banjo bolt off the bike's rear caliper to run a line to the sidecar brake. You also might need a new master cylinder and a reservoir to run the sidecar brake on a newer bike.

I like mine as it is my only transportation and has all the accessories I need. I ride no matter the weather. Yes we do not get much snow down here but in a couple of weeks I will be going to camp out in north GA and hope there is snow. Mine is not a show boat it is just a daily rider and works fine for me.

You ride a bike you drive a rig. One of the many things I like is when jerks are on my *** I just fly the chair and they back way up. Works every time. LOL

I really like your paint job better then any I have seen. But being my is a daily rider and I ride not matter what the weather it does not make much sense to make it a show boat.
