Hello from Michigan

[Mannhouse51]

Just wanted to say hello. The weather is not very good right now for motorbiking. My winter project this year is to build a sidecar . Should be a nice challenge. Pics of my motorbike and moped.

Welcome to MBc, Mannhouse. Now that you have introduced yourself, be sure to read all you can, including the 'Stickies'. They contain a lot of information. For example, Sticky #1 under ‘Introduce Yourself’ has 20 or so links to “How To…” threads, and important pages for you to follow. Sticky # 3 has info on forums, how you are expected to conduct yourself, and where you might find and use various features. But, read all of them, and be sure to use the search feature. If you are still stumped, post a question in the proper Forum.

Be sure to keep us posted on the progress of your build. A sidecar seems to be both a challenging and and rewarding project. I don't really know what Forum your 'build Notes and pics' would fall into, but we can figure that out later...K? Good Luck.

Patrick

Greetings Mannhouse51. I am also from Michigan and just built a motorized bike. I've been looking for other Michiganders to talk to about using MBs. Have you dealt with registering your MB with the SOS? I live in Lansing so it won't exactly be back road riding for me, and being close to MSU there are a lot of cops. Also, any advice for bike building? I didn't know where to start so I bought a kit and just went for it.

This is what came of it.

Is the sidecar you are planning to build for the MB? For cargo? Good luck!
