Well that's an interesting setup! I'd focus on this rig first, much
closer to being a finished project. Had thought about a sidecar rig here
for my wife and I. Her one word response: Kangaroos....

Roos like riding in sidehacks???????

They probably like standing in the road... Around here it's Whitetail
Deer. The local Road Commissions make sure to keep the shoulders
mowed so they are perfect for grazing...

I grew up in Michigan and replaced more than a few windshields, hoods,
side windows and doors and one entire front seat when the buck came
though the glass and exploded beside me in the passenger seat. Picture
something from a Hitchcock movie ...guy at the car wash...hosing out
the front seat while the water running out into the drain was pure
blood and little pieces of flesh.

In many places back there..road kill is X per mile..sometimes as many
as 5-7 per mile during certain times of the year....

Ive had more than 5-6 run smack dab into the side of my vehicle at
full tilt, busting out the door glass and denting the **** out of the
doors, with little apparent damage to the deer.

Out here in Central California, we only run into coyotes (with the
vary rare cow or horse) and Ive posted about hitting coyotes with my
BMW motorcycle...bits and pieces becoming baked onto the opposing
cylinders. And bits hanging off me....

Hitting a full sized roo with a bike, let alone one with a
sidehack..is more than I wish to experience. Hitting a range cow
with a water truck outside of Ely Nevada was more than enough,,,,,
