Another New Guy
« on: November 17, 2014, 07:12:34 PM »
Howdy All,
My name is Chris. I just purchased an 87 K1100RT to turn into a K100T and a sidecar rig. Looking forward to being here.

Hi Wayne,

Here are some of my plans.
Remove fairing and replace with round BMW headlight
Police seat and box or custom rear rack
Lots of cleaning and service work
R1200C swing arm and rear drive
14" VW Vanagon steel wheels
Modify rear drive for 2WD to sidecar wheel
Build leading link front suspension
Aluminum bags
Spare battery
Modify and clean up Dnepr sidecar.

Here are some pictures of past sidecar rigs I have built.
