Default Evo powered sidecar contraption

I spotted this Friday at a local show-cruise in. The entry label said "Harley Side Car 1 seater 1987"

I asked myself "Why?". And I answered "Because you can."

It seems like a waste of a good sidecar and motor, but it was well done.

Finally, a Sportster with a gas tank you can leave town on. A+ for ingenuity.

When you're riding in a traditional sidecar, you are much further away from the engine. Way to close in that thing. No thank you.

Well, to be fair, it IS a Sportster motor.

I happen to have an engine just sitting around. I love this idea! It has the wheels turning in my head.
