I do not know what car tire that is. When it arrives I will read the sidewall and let you know. It looks like a good fit; the profile isn't pinched.

I agree, it does look like a good fit. It would be most excellent if you could find something for the front too. With that suspension, you'd wear very well and handle great with 3 CTs. Probably would require a new rim, at minimum though. Woody's Wheel Works could do it, but I'm not sure he's got the tubeless process down yet.elizilla said:

Oh, and thank you in advance for the info. ::013::

Yep, going to be a lot of people there that would love to see your new rig. There was a KLR hack there last year. It was very in character for a well used KLR. It would be great to see your shiny new hack there...and more importantly, see you there. Hope you'll consider coming.Checkswrecks said:

A friend recently hacked a R1200GS, looks like it might be the same sidecar.

not a direct link, you'll have to scroll down to "general discussions" and then "sidecar rig is completed"

Yeah, that looks like the same or very similar. Sounds like he and his gifted friend did more DIY than me. It's very nice!
You can order the hardware for a GS; DMC had it in their catalog already. So I don't know if he picked up the sidecar used somewhere and his gifted friend fabbed things, or if they ordered the specific hardware from DMC and installed it. I'd have been up for bolting together the ready made items, but DMC didn't have the Super10 in their catalog and I don't have any welding equipment/skills, so I had to just throw money at them and get them to do it for me.

What a great looking ride......
I'm sure it will give you hours of riding fun. ::26::
As mentioned you really need to bring this to Romney in May. It would really get lots of attention. ::015::

Trouble is, I am already committed to a local event on May 3. So I'd have to scurry home early. I will have to wait and decide, once I get the bike and see how I do with it.

That is one seriously cool hack! You are going to have a good time with that mount.
