OP zeke Complete Newb Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 11 United States	I am looking at buying a velorex sidecar, hoping for a good way to haul my guitar, small amp and some clothes; also, hoping to throw the golf clubs in once in a while. Any concerns, experiences, or thot's on this. I have a 2004 Speedmaster. many thanks, zeke

Perhaps I am mistaken but if I misremember right, any extensive time with a sidehack attached can, and will, place stress on the Triumph's frame thus permanently changing the alignment somewhat. You may wish to consider a small trailer. Just something to consider before writing out a check. Last edited by AccessDbGuy; 07/14/2006 7:26 AM.

I believe it even states that in the back of the owner's manual. A friend of mine has ridden with sidecars for years and he swears by them. But he only puts in on when he's going on a long haul and carrying 3 people. He also changes the tires out to ones that are more flat and like car tires since there is no more leaning of the bike. A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice. Pat
