You'll need a lot of weight in the Velorex. From the video it looks like the bike is leaning towards the sidecar and should be slightly leaning outwards. Hope you have a little toe in as well
That looks good. I am trying to do similar with my XL600 LMF. Did you have to stiffen up your bike at all? Were the settings easy to sort out, for toe in camber etc.
Looks like you need to carry about 100 lbs of sandbags in sidecar to prevent it from tipping/popping up. soundtrack at end: Love the Nat King Cole intro from Route 66, yeah!
also, does it mount in a way that is easily able to disconnect it?
I would like to take some longer trips with my dog on board, but i would also like to have the ability to take the sidecar off when shes not riding along :)
Yes it mounts and dismounts easy, like 10 minutes, but all the mounting points have been welded to the frame which took the better part of a weekend. I will use the bike more without the sidecar then with it.

Happiness is never having to put your feet down. It looks like it takes some getting used to.Better check the weight limit on that thing.
