Norge + Sidecar
« on: June 08, 2016, 02:28:30 PM »
I'm thinking about having a sidecar on my Norge and I got these photos of a rig that EZS sidecars have done before.  I thought some of you might be interested.









EZS offer a complete set-up for a Norge which includes sidecar, sub-frame and wheels - even though it doesn't say so on their website.

That's a nice looking rig! And that will also solve the Norge centerstand dragging problem. It's a win-win!

I don't know the total cost to me yet but I think the price of the kit from EZS is about $13,500 CDN.  That doesn't include paint or import fees, etc.  I'm also considering a reverse option (trailer puller) which will add to the total.

Not to be a nay-sayer, but it just seems wrong to put a hack on a bike that was born to Sport tour.

Now, back to your regularly scheduled programing...
The best part of riding a motorcycle is to tilt the horizon and to lift the front coming out of a corner and to drift the back end powering thru loose dirt and to catch a little air topping a hill and... yeah it's all good!

I sorta agree..  for  a hack I'd want floorboards and a La-z-boy seat.  Besides, for the money in the bike and the hack you coulda had a V-8..

Don't worry about the naysayers the Norge will look good tugging a hack.

As far as I know it includes the sidecar, subframe, forks and wheels.
