This is an older Chang Jiang 750 motorcycle that we performed a frame up restoration.

We restored it with actual BMW slash two fenders, front and rear, and make sure everything fit perfectly well.

We custom fabricated the exhaust pipes and a tank mounted shifter.

This bike has a rebuilt BMW R75/5. Delivering a 57 bhp at 6200 rpm, it is a powerful street sport machine.

 

The bike also has bar end turn signals, and often added to slash two BMWs in the 1950s and 1960s.

 

 

The sidecar is a Chang Jiang as well, and features a fully upholstered leather interior and provides maximum comfort when riding.

 

 

The leather was custom tanned and sourced from Guangdong. Look closely and you find great craftsmanship.

 

 

We aluminum powder coated the motor and painted the bike in our own paint shop for a factory new look.

 

 

The color is an original BMW color, “Dover White” with black pinstripes. Look closely and you can see we even pinstriped the rims.

This is my bike that I rode around the world. It’s a 1969 BMW R69S pulling a mid 70s Velorex Hack.

But if you look at the motor, you will notice that it’s an R69S frame with a 1978 R100S motor with 5 speed transmission, and a later rear drive.

With 70 HP this bike can cruise at way above legal speeds!

Once I got to Beijing, the first thing I did was to replace the fiberglass Velorex sidecar for a bigger all steel Donghai sidecar.

The Donghai Motorcycle Company produced a vertical twin 750cc motorcycle based on the British Triumph of the 1960s. To it, they attached a large all steel sidecar for the military. The company went out of business in the early 1980s and we were able to buy up all their inventory of sidecars. The sidecar itself, is larger than a Chang Jiang with a clam shell type opening trunk lid to pack more gear

I fabricated exhaust system, and repainted the bike in our paint booth shop for a factory new look.

 

In 2005, I rode this bike for a once-in-a-lifetime Trans-Eurasia adventure. I rode from Germany to Ireland, then Ireland to Beijing. Nearly 10, 000 miles of riding, this bike endured the test of all tough conditions, and took me to see interesting people and cultures along the rode.

This is another non-Chang Jiang bike we hacked, a 2005 BMW R1200C (James Bond Bike) .

We fabricated a subframe to enable us to safely mount a sidecar to the bike.

The sidecar is an all steel Donghai to which we stretched it by 15 cm for the tall passenger's comfort.

It features a bucket seat, a remote trunk release, and twin Hella spotlights imbedded into the nose of the sidecar.

Then to finish it off we fabricated a stainless steel band around the front of the tub.  

 

 The bike wears a BMW spoked rim as well.

This is another non-Chang Jiang bike that we “hacked”. It is a very fast Harley Davidson Screaming Eagle 1200cc Sportster that allows you to cruise in excess of 100 mph!

We added an all steel Dong Hai sidecar to the Harley. The Donghai sidecar was made for the PLA, and the quality is excellent.

Please note that this sidecar features a Harley wheel. In fact, we can pinstripe the rims.

 

We also fabricated a windshield for the sidecar for the high speed runs.

 

 

We fabricated a subframe for the harley to ensure a safe operation of the bike.

 

 

Everything from the custom made subframe to the paint was done in our own shop.

This is another non Chang Jiang bike we build a sidecar for. It’s a new Triumph Bonneville to which we added an all steel Donghai sidecar.

The bike was in California, and we are of course in Beijing. So customizing this bike was quite a challenge for us, as everything has to be easily mounted to the bike without welding or cutting.

We fabricated a steel sub frame that is bolted to the Triumph frame. We then shipped the sub frame, mounts, and sidecar to the customer and he was able to bolt it up in a day.

 

 

Before we ship the sidecar, we painted it in our paint shop for a uniform color with the bike.

 

 

 

The Dong Hai factory is a PLA contractor that use to build military sidecars. Few of its high-quality sidecars made to the market. We are lucky to have some of those sidecars.

We shifted this bike from a Honda Shadow 750 V Twin, a classic cruiser with a cool sporty look.

We built a subframe for the bike for greater comfort when racing on either the road or highway.

We also added an all steel Donghai sidecar to the bike. The Dong Hai factory manufactured the sidecars originally for the PLA, so the quality is of high-standard.

 

We engineered the sidecar mounts for this bike and test ride it to make sure it rides true and straight with no handling ills.
