TV 175 S3 sidecar Habri

Habri already owned this scooter and asked us to turn it into a sidecar combo' which we were happy to do. The whole bike was stripped and the scooters' paintwork retained. At first glance the bike seemed okay upon closer inspection a lot of things had been bodged up (broken headset base, cracked disc brake hub, bent forks etc.) so first of all all these things needed attention. An extra colour was added to contrast the original colour and we rebuilt the scooter to cope with the stress of having a sidecar latched to the side. An RLC sidecar wheel conversion was fitted, as were RLC crashbars, a couple of extra lamps for nocturnal use and a few chrome parts to keep Habris' Mod instincts happy. He's not afraid of using the outfit and is quite happy to cover loads of miles attending rallies in Italy during the scootering seasons, with his girlfriend Nancy sat in the chair. Since the pics were taken, an inside legshield toolbox has been added and the outfit is still going strong.
