Sidecar for R 1150/1200 GS

WATSONIAN has developed a sports-touring sidecar specifically for use with BMW R 1150 GS and R 1200 GS models. 



BMW uses its boxer twin engine as a stressed member on both the GS models, so Watsonian designed a sub-frame to attach the sidecar and modified its sidecar frame for the BMW GS, adding a roll bar, front and rear nudge bars and front-facing spotlights.
The sidecar rolls on a 15in split-rim style wheel covered by a minimalist hugger featuring a combined LED tail light/indicator unit.



The bodyshell is based on the Watsonian GT4 and the wrap-around screen section folds up for ease of access. A passenger step is integrated into the chassis, incorporating a front LED indicator; the lockable trunk measures 63 x 76 x 53cm.
