Are Chang Jiang 750 sidecars high maintenance?
YES, we should stress, that YES they are ! Do not buy one if you live outside China and do not have the “know how”, or do not enjoy doing some tinkering. Chang Jiang 750 sidecars require an basic understanding of engines and respect for old technology. This sidecar motorcycle will give you lots of fun and will also keep you busy on weekends. If you are in China there are many places that can fix your bike cheaply, if you are in a western country you will definitely need to be able to your own maintenance, understand how motorcycles work, or it will end up costing you lots of money to keep a Chang Jiang 750 sidecar running properly. If you do buy one, do note that they all have a bit of oil leaking and all require loving tender care, just like a girlfriend you would want to keep forever. A well built and maintained Chang Jiang 750 will provide you endless fun and a poorly put together Chang Jiang 750 will be your worst nightmare. This is really a motorcycle for the enthusiast / tinkerer
