For riding twisty roads - bags of bottom end torque makes the ride a lot more fun. It's the main reason I love my current ride [Moto Guzzi California 1100i].

Sidecar outfits are another experience again, particularly on dirt roads - and I speak as one who rode one, as my only bike for ~8 years.
I've seen Russian Ural outfits with 1600cc Volkswagen engines in them, but the one that took the cake was a unit I only saw in photos, as it was built and owned by a bloke in WA.

That was the 'Toadmobile', based on a Honda Goldwing frame and a Datsun diff and transmission IIRC, hooked up to a Leyland 4.4L alloy V8!


Found a pic of that Ural/VW;
