Here's a picture of the sidecar almost attached. What do you think?




Sidecar was imported from Iraq after Desert Storm. It's got a bullet-hole in the hood. It's a flip-nose for easy entry.

More pictures to come as the project progresses.
An XT with a side car???

That is neat! Who will be the brave soul that rides in the side car?

Hi Guys,

Can we have close ups of the mounts please? Particularly the front upper.


I am in the bush in OZ and want to do a XT600 with a Royal Enfield sidecar.
Any help is welcome?

Cheers
Mito

Don't know if the 750 frame is so much different; I have a 1993 750 super Ténéré with sidecar, and drove in june 2010 from Holland to Mongolia. Hope pictures will help you!
