The Winter in New England? IT's CALLED A SNOWMOBILE!!!!
No, my deck is under snow!
There is a volume of advice and techniques to set up a sidecar rig. But you are correct that the rig will always be 'asymmetrical' in acceleration, braking, and turning. The goal is to achieve a balance straight and level, (or straight and steady in not aviation parlance). The ultimate steering arrangement is to apply a leading link front end. This sets up a better trail. A heavy bike and car like this rig often has a brake on the sidecar wheel as well. It is slaved and proportioned to the rear brake on the bike.I've always been intrigued by the idea of a sidecar for my not so motorcycle happy friends. Since the "host" motorcycle provides the thrust and the braking, I imagine that with a right side car, you get a bit of right yaw force on acceleration and left yaw force on deceleration. It seems like that would shred the front tire in short order. Is there some clever toe in or mounting geometry that addresses that?
I'm sorry for your loss.The good thing is I'm moving and won't have to deal with winter ever again.
Thanks, from what I can see you in your avatar looks like you have a great looking rig also.Rekoob, what's in your fridge? Nice rig.
