  • You can buy a sidecar with Beijing plates and have it transfer to your name.
  • The Chang Jiang 750 is a high maintenance sidecar and needs to be respected as an antique motorcycle.
  • PLA parts, etc.. new parts.. are all the same as long as they are good parts, I have seen good and bad parts so PLA don't mean anything, almost half the parts on the market are from PLA inventory. PLA is not hard to find. It is very common.
  • Buy your Chang Jiang 750 from someone that knows how to ride and have many local customers. If the shop has no riding club, there is something wrong with that shop. I have the experience, the expertise, and also network of local friends to help you with your Chang Jiang 750.
  • If someone offer you Hebei plates without full documentation, they are doing illegal business and the sidecar is from a questionable source and has no documentation. Why does one sell Chang Jiang 750 sidecars with Hebei plates when legal Beijing plates are available? Just look at how many local riders have Beijing plates! Do not support criminal business activity!
  • We want you to have an excellent running Chang Jiang 750 sidecar and for you to bring your friends to my shop. We have helped hundreds of riders and you will be able to feel the difference when you ride a sidecar that is maintained or restored by us, our prices are listed. We do not discriminate, and we will not make up some fancy bullshit story to make you pay more. We will show you the difference in quality and clearly explain the details to you and give you only the best quality!
  • Do not buy a bike that is heavily covered in Bondo, most of the time its used to hide rusted parts. Do not get impressed with shiny paint jobs or hard to get PLA stories. Do not buy from anyone that is copying our name or using our brand!
  • Check on reliabilty and prices. There are some very unscruplous dealers - do your research.

Local restorations:

Someone you can trust in the neighborhood - All my restorations are from legal sidecars with legally registered plates. We will only only work on a sidecar or motorcycle with legally registered plates.

We use only the best parts available such as imported bearings, tapered steering bearings, imported motor oil (Conoco, Mobil, Castrol). All of my work is done professionally and with the proper equipement to give you the best reliability available.

For export all our bikes are restored from PLA surplus bikes. Check out our PLA surplus gallery for pix of the bikes we have.

 

Export restorations:

Setting the standards for quality - All of our restorations are from PLA surplus sidecars that are from the 1970's and 80's. Why PLA? because there are many around and its less expensive than a legal sidecar with registration thus are the ideal type of Chang Jiang 750 sidecar to use. We hands on retore the sidecars to your specification and test them out individually. It takes about 40 days for my mechanics and We to restore a sidecar. Standard on our restoration are items like; tapered steering bearings, imported bearings throughout the bike, quality spokes, brass floats in carburetors. We will have more pix on this site as it develops. We hope to hear from you soon.

Please note: Beware of whom you get your Chang Jiang 750 sidecar from. If you buy a Chang Jiang 750 from a dealer that has no experience then you are in for an unpleasant time.
