Classic Style and Enduring Quality

The Companion GT was designed with the Harley-Davidson in mind. The bullet shaped design has the classic style that Harley owners love, and the suspension technology that they need. The GT has a trailing arm suspension and progressive coil spring damper unit by Progressive Suspension, giving the passenger an exquisitely smooth ride.

 

The Companion GT rides on a 145/SR13 radial tire mounted on a 13" aluminum wheel, or you may choose the optional 16” motorcycle style wheel and tire to create the perfect match to the bike (available for most wheel styles). And, like all our other models, the Companion GT’s "quick disconnect" system allows for the sidecar to be disconnected or reattached in about 15 minutes.

Features

Mounting: Friendship Sets The Industry Standards

The hardware that attaches the sidecar to your motorcycle is absolutely critical and our brackets set the standard. Meticulously designed (and manufactured in-house), our brackets carry a Lifetime warranty and will be replaced FREE anytime they show fatigue. No welding is required. Consider this:

1. A Patented 4-point mounting, utilizing GRADE 8 aircraft quality bolts and nylock nuts.
2. Every sidecar is shipped with mounting hardware specifically designed to fit the year, make and model of your motorcycle.
3. Initial installation takes 8-14 hours using simple hand tools and minimal mechanical ability. Full mounting instructions are included.
4. Our "quick disconnect" system lets you disconnect and reattach the sidecar in about 15 minutes.
5. Mounting brackets can be ordered separately to adapt the sidecar to a new motorcycle.

 

Suspension: The Unique Friendship 4-Point System

No matter which Friendship model you buy, you are guaranteed the most advanced suspension system ever developed for sidecar travel.

1. Trailing arm suspension with a progressive damping coil spring shock designed for us by Progressive Suspension.
2. A six-stage valve adjusts to changing load and road conditions.
3. A special cam adjuster allows easy preload adjustment for varying load carrying conditions.
4. Chrome springs are standard and carry a LIFETIME warranty.

 

Body: Performance and Looks

Aerodynamic design is crucial to total performance. Uneven airflow acting on sidecar body has a negative impact on performance, stability at highway speeds and fuel efficiency.

The Friendship's graceful shape cleanly penetrates the air with virtually no turbulence.

It performs on the road every bit as good as it looks sitting in your garage. Constructed of heavy-duty fiberglass with high strength-to-weight ratios. Reinforced with impact resistance coremat.


Frame: Simply The Best Construction

1. Mandrel bent 1" steel tubing, ladder type construction, built to SAE standard specifications.
2. All adjustment points are double locked or nylocked with plated GRADE 8 bolts and nylock nuts to insure reliability.
3. Frame mounting struts are electrostatically power-coated high gloss black to resist rust and corrosion.
4. Friendship Series roll out smoothly a 145SR13 wide profile radial tire mounted on a 13" mag aluminum cast D.O.T. approved wheel.

The bulk of the 2013 Harley-Davidson model lineup has been revealed in documents released by the California Air Resources Board. While this is a fairly lengthy list of models, it may not be complete as Harley-Davidson sometimes saves a couple of new model announcements for later in the year. Most of the models revealed are returning models but there are a couple of omissions as well as several additions, including new anniversary models celebrating Harley-Davidson’s upcoming 110th anniversary.

Motorcycles at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show

Mon, 28 Sep 2009

Two weeks ago, I took a break from my regular duties gathering news for Motorcycle.com to fly to Germany to cover the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show for our sister site AutoGuide.com. For two hectic days, AutoGuide editor Colum Wood and I scrambled across the massive 6.2 million square foot Messe Frankfurt trade fair compound, running from press conference to press conference to get the latest on exotic sport cars, futuristic concept models and international unveilings from the automotive world. It was heaven for car lovers, but for me, it meant fighting my way through hordes of photogs, auto-journalists and car show models to get the first photos of four-wheeled goodies from MINI, Ferrari and Lotus.
