Re: Jialing JH600B Sidecar
Now here we go again, said I never own a Chinese bike again but the Jialing JH600B-A (green army version) has been ordered, lets wait and see how it all plays out with delivery time, registration, etc.
Besides updated electrics (ECU, FI, etc.), any other upgrades / improvements to the previous JL JH600B sidecar versions? Any feedback welcome and appreciated.
Have a nice "rain-free" weekend wherever you are......

Power outlets 12V:

Congrats on your purchase. I have seen the marketing material for the new JH600B-A and it showed that the sidecar now has the power outlet on the dash, in the same way as the two-wheeled JH600. My 2010 "B" did not have the outlet, but I installed one for pittance (50 rmb, I recall).
The one other required upgrade is a decent set of horns. The stock horn is quite pathetic.
I put the large hand protectors on, until my sidecar passenger complained that the right side protector deflected wind directly onto their face.
I also put a sidecar step on (there are two openings for it to be easily mounted).
The sidecar windscreen that is sold on taobao for about 150 rmb is total garbage. I had a one custom-made, out of thick plexiglass. Cost about 800 rmb, but was worth it.
Finally, I put a heavy plastic mat in the sidecar to help reduce the noise.
Good luck with the order, reg & plating.

Re: Jialing JH600B Sidecar
Butch, there are quite a few JH600Bs in Shanghai, including the new -A version -- maybe even more than there are JH600 two-wheelers. Nostalgie has one of each, and has ridden the hell out of his JH600B. Should be a great source of experience and knowledge.
cheers!

Everything seems so simple and frill-less when you ride a Multistrada! haha
Well congrats on the bike!
Not sure Army Green is the perfect Hainan Island Cruiser color....Would you consider giving the bike a paint job?
I've yet to see a JB with cool paint.
These sidecars have some "island flair" inspiration:

Congrats on receiving the new toy. Nice pics! The green background looks good!
Now I have seller's remorse.
I see that the "B-A" does indeed have a console power outlet ... and I am envious of the new ECU!

Re: Jialing JH600B Sidecar
I was thinking about painting the JH600 Desert Tan, with a matt black frame..... or paint it "Safari" style like my now sold CJ 750
