Unknown, maybe Super X? sidecar
« on: November 10, 2014, 12:13:45 PM »
Hello everybody! I'm hungarian, so not too good in English. I've got a sidecar, which is an oldest one, but I don't know the type of it. I read a lot in sidecar history and ask somebody who is adept in vintage vehicles, but they can't help me so much. In Hungary there is a famous sidecar maker who said that this sidecar is one of sidecars which made for Henderson motorcycles. (I think the frame is Steib 350). Does anybody know what's the type of it? Thank you.

I didn't thing Henderson made their own side cars, but I'm not sure.

Gyula, the guys on this forum know everything about the Excelsior Hendersons from 1999 and 2000 so I am not sure if there are any experts on earlier Hendersons.

I think this side car may have been used on other bikes. Here is a pic of a very similar looking rig on a 31 Harley VL. Note there are several differences like the front of the fender mount.
