Default crazy idea?
How crazy of an idea would it be to add one of those side carts on a sportster? I want to take my bike everywhere but want my family to be part of it and well it just wouldn't be the same w/ out the retriever..

not crazy at all...they call them hacks...or sidecars....but if you have never ridden a bike with a sidecar you might be in for a surprize as they ride nothing like a bike without one..all i can say is its not for me..
