Bruce dropped off his BMW K75

to get his sidecar repaired and fitted up.

Then brought it back to get a Leading Link fitted. The steering is much lighter now and she is a pleasure to ride.

This will be the first Leading Link we have fitted to this model.

 The Link fabrication on the BMW has been testing. I cant wait to Road Test the outfit. Some mods to our normal sidecar mounts were required as the stereo is in the way of the top mount

                         BMW R1150GS

Phil has dropped his BMW GS1150 in    

for us to fit a  HRD sidecar

 

The BMW proved to be an awkward installation, but we got there in the end. Without a leading link or trail modifier it was a little heavy in the steering.

  BMW R100RT

Joanne dropped in a very tidy  BMW R100RT & Dusting outfit. While Joanne was happy with the overall handling of the outfit, which was fitted up by her Hubby Dave; the steering was quite heavy ,We will fit up a Leading Link for her to lighten the load.
