It’s actually a brand new Kazakhstan-made 2024. Its got the 2WD gear, but you only engage that when off roading because it makes turning even harder than it already is.
Your best option for a sidecar is to find something used that’s already set up. Before I bought my current bike I test rode a Triumph that had an Indian-made sidecar (the country, not the motorcycle brand) attached to it, and that bike was pretty nice but I couldn’t afford it at the time.
But if you’re in Europe, then Chang Jiang has new bikes in the EU. It’s got a modern engine too, not just an updated old engine like Ural has. It’s a Taiwanese company AFAIK, so it’s separate from the Chang Jiangs that come out of mainland China, which I believe are all still refurbished military bikes from the 60s. Dunno if they’re in your country or not, but I was really disappointed to learn that they don’t sell them in America because it would have been my preferred choice.
Is it an old one or one of the newer? Do they still have power to the side car wheel?

That sounds nice :) I was thinking of one as my first bike, but don’t want to buy anything new made Russian at the moment
Got a link to an eu reseller or something?
