Ural Motorcycle Review - Our Best Sidecar
FortNine

Sidecars are . . . what? Weird? Wonderful? Sidecars have been around forever, but I'm not sure they were ever a very good idea. The certainly capture the imagination, and whenever one makes an appearance they cause a stir, but a good idea? Maybe an expedient solution to a shortage or four wheel vehicles, but I don't think they were ever a good idea. They make good movie though.

The motorcycles used in the movie were not the original Beemers, but other brands dressed up to look like German army motorcycles, which were what the Ural was copied from.

I remember seeing Sean Connery hopping about on the giant boulders in the underground temple in the movie Never Say Never Again and thought he was not as spry as he used to be. He was 53. I was still shocked to see him in this Indiana Jones movie playing an old man. He was 59.
