Company History
Yangtze/Chang Jiang sidecar rigs became icons of utility—rugged boxers with spares available from simple supply chains. Built to carry passengers and cargo on rough roads, they favored simplicity, torsional strength, and easy field service. Modern revivals polished electrics and brakes, but the core experience remains: leisurely pace, mechanical honesty, and the quirky satisfaction of sidecar travel.
