​Sidecars are a blast!  My first was a Ural I tied to a BMW R60/2 back in the '80s.  Here we are, my son and I in a Christmas parade in Arroyo Grande, CA.  

Sidecars are not only fun to ride; but very

utilitarian too.  Sure you can ride with three people on board; or you can carry a bunch of stuff in it.
Make yourself very popular by bringing that keg of beer to the camp site. 

As stated in previous postings here, the R1200 GS was an adventure rig - it would go anywhere.  By contrast the Indian rig is simply a "gentlemans" rig for this only sees paved roads or hard packed dirt. and the adventures are fine hotels and dining.

At any rate. should you ever think of a sidecar rig; ran across this excellent video today.  Helge Pedersen is a world class world rider!  You can find more about him on the web and Youtube.  So sit back and enjoy this presentation:
