SIDECAR SAFETY The Ural sidecar motorcycle, since it has three wheels, behaves quite differently from either a solo motorcycle or a car. For these reasons the following label has been attached to your motorcycle tank: WARNING: LEFT-HAND AND RIGHT-HAND TURNS MAY BE DANGEROUS. EXCESSIVE SPEED AND AN UNWEIGHTED SIDECAR MUST BE AVOIDED.
Page 24
SIDECAR SAFETY (CONT.) Finally, practice lifting the sidecar. To do this drive in a clockwise circle about 20 feet in diameter. Gradually increase your speed until the sidecar wheel lifts from the surface 6 - 12 inches. Then roll off the throttle and ease steering pressure on the grips so it gradually comes back down.
