• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Thanks Bob ... If I knew how to put a link up here that would work I would do so but the twice I have tried in the past all I got is a black screen - I can't be bothered wasting my time on that right now .... But, in the mean time just take a moment and go onto YouTube to google up Schwenker...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    Sidecars, broom broom and Pixie dust I was 99% sure this could be done and then just today what was able to find, but a German based company 'Kalich side cars' who specialise in what they call 'swing'type side car mounting ... In other words the bike rider rides and leans as normal, but the...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    This is in fact the one area I am still mulling over .... i.e. making it really easy for Cathy to just 'swing' herself around side ways. Whether that involves a completely opening top section or what ever I just don't know right now .. I am pretty sure there will have to be a Mk1, a Mk2, a Mk3...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    Spyders here in Qld are registered as a trike and trikes are registered 'under' motorcycle legislation which is Section 12B - (motor cycles registered to carry a pillion passenger) ... The current legislation having read it from cover to cover specifically goes in to how a side car must comply...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    I had sort of put this photo to the back of my mind from a little while ago when first starting to do the research on this ... These are Keijis 2 trikes with side cars .... The one on the left is a H_D tri-glide 'Electra' and the one on the right .. well I'll leave that up you to try to figure...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T.... Has anyone ever done

    All I can say is the golden moto ... If you don't have a go you will never know ... stay tuned ... If I stuff things up then so be it ... (but that's not going to happen either ... that's not being cocky, its just being confident)

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    I really appreciate these thoughts but ... To begin with there are no upright stability issues as there are on a traditionally fitted side car concept. Spyders are already set up to be ridden 100% upright just the same the same as an ATV or Quad bike (so no counter roll compensation will be...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    There is no way in hell I will sit my little lovely in this if I ever though I was creating a disaster just waiting to happen ...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    Apparently it is true then, 'great minds do think alike' .... Almost from the moment of its conception, this is one thought I have been mulling over all along ..... This hasn't been so much to bring the side-car concept closer to the ride, but from the point of when I go ahead ... how the hell...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    Thanks Sylvester ... (Tongue in cheek as we say over here) I am willing to sweep the warranty issues under the carpet to get this up and going ... The more I become engaged with this the more I am convinced it will work ... As added incentive I remembered today from just doing the initial...

    What's the possibility of mounting up a side car to my F3-T .. Anyone ever done it?

    I am taking this so seriously that here are a couple of bits and pieces that say to me ... here in Australia 'the side car project' could very well be a goer .... and definitely doable .... So I went through the workshop manual 'Chassis' area as well as had a good squiz on the net .. IMO so...

    Why not do something like you have sort of halfway already said there .. why not have some type of handlebar set up on from the rear of your backrest / support ... just something easily custom made so the little lovelly doesn't get tired holding onto them ... adjust the length of each of the...
