  • Patent number: 4548419
    Abstract: There is disclosed a motorcycle sidecar which has a single wheel on a king post, a load supporting tray which may optionally form a mudguard for the wheel, and a framework. The framework supports at least each end of the tray and consists of two vertically disposed parallelogram linkages between the motorcycle and the wheel. The top member of the front parallelogram linkage is connected to the top member of the rear one, as are the lower members and the king post is attached to these connecting members. When the motorcycle is leaned into a corner, the king post leans at a similar angle while the wheel remains on the ground and the tray remains substantially horizontal.
