Not happy with the size of my American Eagle spirit sidecar with the wing. Although it has done well for previous owner for years, it is nowhere what my old terraplane was. (Never sell anything!!)

I have been studying and considering converting it to a semi leaner. (Bike leans, sidecar doesn't)

Anyone here done this? On an early goldwing? I would love to see subframe designs and input.
 
Thanks Joe. Alot of changes in the last 5 years. New wife, new child (No, I'm.not to old for that) different home and different position at the same old job.
Also good to have my hands back on a wing.

I know where their is a Terraplane for sale fairly close. 125 miles from here!

Do tell?
 
Update.
I stripped the bike back to naked, went through all the mechanicals and enjoyed it solo for year last year. But without the sidecar, not enough.
The leaner dream was getting more difficult the deeper I got into it. I alone am just not enough of a fabricator, others where afraid of liability and others got pricey. So...plan B
I sold it and bought a 1200 Aspy with california sidecar.
New problem, 3 months to get appointment with Secretary of State. :swoon:

Thanks guys, good to back. Looked at a couple terraplanes but either to rough, missing the correct pylons or I was just to late.
Pistol pete sold one with everything needed to a guy in ohio that I just missed that would have been perfect.
This one belonged to an old friend. He bought it new but is unable to ride anymore. He made me a great deal.
I was surprised how quickly the other bike then sidecar sold.
