Coming Spring 2022!
The wait is almost over… “Harley-Davidson Sidecars, History and Restoration, 1914-1935” by Ric Bolduc is the only book in publication that covers the history and restoration of Harley-Davidson sidecars for the period 1914-1935. The book covers single and two-passenger sidecars including the 1914 Model 10H, 1915-22 Model L “Pleasure/Tourist”, 1918-22 Two-Passenger Model QL “Pleasure/Tourist”, 1920-22 Model LR “Road-Stir”, 1922-35 Model LT “Royal Tourist”, 1922-33 Two-Passenger Model QT “Family Delight”, and 1929-35 Model LS “45” sidecar. Topics covered in detail include Harley-Davidson Sidecar History, Parts Books, Sidecar Models and Descriptions, Instructions for Disassembly and Assembly, Chassis, Chassis Connections, Leaf Spring Assemblies, Support Rods, Sidecar Steps, Axles, Brakes, Wheels, Mudguards and Attachments, Sidecar Bodies, Interiors, Footboards, Recoil Check Strap Assemblies, Accessories for Sidecars, Sidecar Tops, Windscreens, Tire and Luggage Carriers, Sidecar Lamps, Paint and Finishes, Plating, Decals and Transfers, Motorcycle Sidecar Motors, Instructions for Attaching Sidecar Tops, Motorcycle Adjustments for Sidecars, Motorcycle Gear Ratios for Sidecars, Lubrication, and Installing Rivets.
Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, so the book uses almost 600 Harley-Davidson Factory and period photos including illustrations showing unmolested sidecars, production methods, and part assemblies. The book also includes over 700 photos showing original parts, assembly diagrams, and restoration techniques to help visualize and explain the verbiage. The book is easy to read and understand with large text, but best of all the book layout makes it easy to find information about specific model years without spend a lot of time searching through the sections. And even though the subject matter is specific to 1914-1935 sidecars, many of the parts and procedures discussed in the book are applicable to sidecars and motorcycles beyond 1935. So, whether you are restoring a specific year sidecar model or just wanting to know more about the history of Harley-Davidson sidecars, this book is a must have.
