use "Honda Silverwing with sidecar" in your google and open up "Images"

unfortunately there are quite a few with the sidecar on the wrong side.(RHS), but you can get some ideas.

There is also a chap PICA-THAI on here from Thailand with one on the correct side. look up his avatar

Hi Kurt, Went online and looked at images of S/Wing with a sidecar and found a company in Enumclaw, Wa. that installs sidecars on S/Wing's and Burgman's, they are a bit pricey, sidecar, mount and installation around $4,625.00, they can also modify the front end for better steering for an additional $700.00, Check out their website, dmcsidecars.com. Ride Safe...Robert.

Just a comment coming from someone who has a sidecar (though not on the Swing). Be prepared for a steep learning curve riding it. It won't handle anything like it did without the sidecar. No lean in to turns and whatever side the bike is on will turn like it's on rails while the side with the sidecar will turn like a tractor trailer. If you can get your head around that notion then go for it. Also, if there is a sidecar training course near you I strongly advise you to spend the money and take it.

My sidecar training was a 16 oz ball point hammer applied sharply to forehead. After that riding a sidecar seemed perfectly normal.
