Very nice.
That assistant entry handle (if that's what its called) looks interesting. I'm assuming it was home made. What's it attached to and how?

The handle was either created by a very skilled craftsman or it is a factory produced item.

The handle is made from bar stock, angle iron, flat stock and a lot of very nice weld. It is attached to the front tub support close to the spring shackle. The support is tapped for two screws, the handle is bolted onto the front tub support from beneath. Very close to the spring shackle.

This bracket is bolted onto the front tub support by two bolts.

Excellent welding.

Front tub support. One hole visible the other is closer to the tub. They are tapped.

I see the supertraps any motor work done?
I really dig the bike, looks great I would love to own a sidecar rig.

Bought it used, don't know the history or the engine upgrades. Those are early White Bros. eliptical exhaust. After the Bros. left Supertrapp and formed their own company. I think that's correct. Just jump in, the water is fine. These old Harley sidecars are getting more rare by the day. Thanks for the comments!

Thats some real thought out ingenuity, obviously a highly skilled craftsman with access to quality stock and an eye for detail.
