Review
The Chang-Jiang SM 750, produced in 1988, is a sidecar motorcycle with a 745cc engine that produces 26 horsepower at 4500 RPM, allowing it to reach a top speed of 119 km/h. The four-speed gearbox manages the power delivery to the rear wheel and the sidecar wheel. Weighing in at a substantial amount, this machine is built for stability and presence on the road. With a fuel tank of 25 liters, it offers a decent range for longer journeys. This motorcycle requires a different approach to riding compared to a solo bike. The sidecar affects handling significantly, demanding careful steering and balance, especially during cornering. The braking system, featuring expanding brakes, requires ample stopping distance, a characteristic of older motorcycles. The upright riding position provides a comfortable view of the road ahead. The Chang-Jiang SM 750 targets riders who are interested in the unique experience of sidecar motorcycling and are prepared to learn the specific skills required to handle such a machine. It's appealing to those who enjoy the classic styling and the practicality of carrying a passenger or cargo in the sidecar. This motorcycle is a nod to a bygone era, offering a distinctive and engaging riding experience.
