Motorbike and sidecar hire USA
 
I woke this morning feeling slightly jaded after the works Christmas knees up and starting dreaming of next years motorcycle trip. I went away this year on my own so next year i'm under orders to take Wifey n Sproggy.

Ive always wanted to go to the States and was wondering where i may be able to hire a bike and sidecar and how much roughly it would cost so i could work out a budget.

I have no real preference as to a destination at the moment, the only thing i know is the trip period would be for around three weeks.

Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

Thanks Jim

Jim,
I ran my KLR with a sidecar for a year or so. My biggest issue was the speeds. They are damn hard to run (safely) at speed. Louis Pryce and Vince Austin went cross country on a newer Ural so it is possible. You may want to consider a buy/sell option and have her ride as a pillion as well

old thread but...
 
i need to reacitvate this question.

I am not familiar riding a solo, because i always run a sidecar.
Next year we plan a trip through the middle west.
Broadly speaking Smokey Mountains to Yosemite.

What i found until now is a lot of posibilitites to rent a motorcycle, but no sidecar.
Do i need to train some solo reflexes or can i rent a sidecar in the USA for that roadtrip?

thanks for any information
Richard
