ABSTRACT:
A side car for a motorcycle, wherein the side car box overlies the side car wheel directly thereabove. The lateral coupler between the side car and the motorcycle biases the side car wheel to incline interiorly of a curve, together with the motorcycle wheels, upon the moving vehicle taking a curve on a road. The side-car frame and box axially roll with the wheel, whereby the side-car center of gravity remains continuously within the plane of its wheel. As the motorcycle wheels progressively axially roll, their angular value relative to the vertical plane will increase relative to a second angular value corresponding to the roll of the side-car wheel relative to the vertical plane.
