I have a line on a 1997 wing with a California sidecar on it, and looking for any info. on it. Not sure on the model of the sidecar. They are both white. The wing has 81,000 miles but the car has under 200 on it They have not been used much for a couple of years ,but have been run during that time. .
Without pics or more info on the sidecar, its tough to give any useful info.
Older wings were known for needing timing belt replacement.
Hopefully it was garaged, or covered from the elements while it was in storage.
However if the price is right, it might be a good deal...
Good luck with your decision. Why only 200 miles on the side car? RIDE SAFE
The older model csc didn't have a flip front. This makes them hard 2 get out of. Just a thought in case someone is going 2 ride in it.
Its a newer car, the front flips up. The owner had just put the car on and got hurt and stopped riding. It was stored in a shed seams clean. I need to look at more closely.
had a california Side car and it was FANTASIC
does it look like this
Sidecars are neat looking, but I've never owned one. However, I've owned several 1500 'Wings. My only concerns with the one you're looking at would be gunked up carbs, &/or rust in the fuel tank with your extremes in temperature up there causing condensation.
If those two items are good, inspect the timing belts (not that hard) & change if they look cracked, or for peace of mind. Pull the rear wheel and check/lube the final drive splines with moly-60 grease, check the oil levels, and BOOGIE. Those 1500's are known for 200k miles with very few problems.
Good luck on your find.
