Default Towing with a SV

Has anyone put a sidecar or towed with a SV?

Any Px?

The towing one sounds like a good idea if it's your only vehicle and you need to go to the tip or summat.

It has got the torque for it

I've towed an SV, but never towed with an SV...

Sidecar

Trailer, on a bike (It ain't a Goldwing you know...)

Both of the above should be placed in the same catagories as 'Topboxes' IMHO

Ewwwwwwwww

Yes there was a german that put a sidecar onto the SV.

I posted the pic about a year ago on here but can't find it anymore.

It looked though.

That would be so kewl in my opinion.

Versatile too.

Since I was burnt off by that Tuono, I'm trying to find uses for the SV.

Towing a trailer would fit perfectly in my book of excuses. Got nothing to do at the mo so will cruise the net looking for bike/trailers and see how much a conversion cost. Got me car for carrying but if I go abroad would be useful.
