1981 Yamaha SR500 with Sidecar

In 3 Wheels, Japan by AbhiLeave a Comment

First – I feel obligated to remind you that this bike sort of lives on as the new SR400. But if you’re looking for the OG (and you like having a third wheel), check out this ’81 with a Velorex 562 sidecar.

This example has 12,000 miles and is claimed to run great. The seller built the rig when his daughter was in preschool – it has a seatbelt designed for a booster seat – but she’s now 16 and apparently doesn’t enjoy being a passenger anymore. Just had a kid (or grandkid)? Welcome to your future! I just hope you don’t need a magic button, as this only has a kickstarter.
