    Default WANTED: Long distance travel enduro sidecar for south america trip

    Hi folks,
    When internet researching for my trip I ran into your forum.

    I´m currently preparing a trip heading down to south america starting from Santa Barbara, CA in November 2010 - lasting for 7+ months. Roads used are mostly gravel roads (or worse )

    I want to do it with a well suited sidecar.
    What I have in mind (basic requirements - though I´m flexible ):

    - sidecar usable for tough gravel roads and in very good overall condition - must survive 20.000+ miles without any issues
    - enough engine power to cross high mountain passes in the Andes
    - maximum velocity: 80+mph / 130+kmh
    - fuel capacity: 400+miles / 650+km
    - min. spring deflection: 8in. / 200mm
    - min. ground clearance: 8in. / 200mm
    - sidecar that can sit one person - though mostly used for carrying equipment
    - sidecar is equipped with a braking system
    - storage volume: 45+gallons / 170+l (fully lockable / weather sealed / dust proof metal boxes)

    Does somebody know of a sidecar for sale that fullfils these requirements?

    BTW - I am aware of the post of bmweuro here.
    Thanks a lot for your help!
    Kind regards,
    Synt
