G'day all,
I'm thinking about modify my 1981 Dr500S into a nice sidecar. Can anyone give me some basic instructions of building a sidecar and where could I get the parts such as steering damper and leading link forks from please? will be appreciated if anyone could help me out. (Just do some research before I start to working on it...it won't start till the end of next year. Got a 3 wheeler project ATM ;) )
Thanks,
Jacky

The leading link needs to be built to suit the bike. You will be wasting time and money trying to fit one that was built for something else. I am not a fan of steering dampers, especially those heavy Volkswaggon ones that many seem to use. They make the steering so heavy and require a lot of effort to turn the bars. Speak to member 'EML' on here, he has experience with DR500 sidecars.

I will donate a frame for free to hack up ... all yours come and get it.

Yeah, thanks for that but I will build myself a sidecar frame to suit it.
I will talk to EML about this. Thanks all
