wanted! side car bottom plate

dear all,
want to travel with my family, means my wife und two children (2 and 3 years old). i am looking for two side car bottom plates, one for me and one for my wife.
should be lightweighted, easy handling, usable all roads, mainly on road. in each side car is sitting a child.
my first idea: it should be based on a cross side car bottom plate, adapted by same safeties for the children.

who has experience with travelling in a side car bottom plate?
which bike is the best (think on a ktm 640 adventurer)?
who manufactures such a tool (i am resident in vienna/austria)?
where i can get more infos about that?

many thanx

ali

Sidecar Ideas

Have you thought of a twoseater sidecar and on one bike only? That would leave the second bike free. I used to take all three of my kids in my outfit. Two in the chair and one on the back of the bike. Also worth a read is this website.
