Complete restoration
|
|
At Beijing Sidecar complete restoration means COMPLETE restoration. We begin every restoration project by stripping the Chang Jiang 750 down to every individual part. After this is done all paint is stripped off to the bare metal. Then every part is coated with anti-rust paint, then primer. The underside of the bike is thoroughly cleaned and painted. The process of stripping off all the paint
before we add the rust protection, will ensure that the new paint job lasts a long time, hold it's original luster and makes it easy to retouch if you get a scratch in your paintjob.
|
The paint of your choice is then adhered in 12 layers. It’s true, 12 coats of paint… and we only use super high quality paint from Dupont, ICI or BASF. All aluminium parts undergo a super polishing |
process that makes it shine like chrome.
This includes the transmission, rear drive and brake cover. All steel and metal parts of the bike are polished likewise, brake and clutch levers and axle mounts. |
|
|
We invite you to check the result after each process so as to guarantee that the work meets you expectations or if you want any special effects added.

Engine Tune Up
|
|
The Chang Jiang 750 comes with standard 24 Hp or 32 HP OHV engines. We recommend having a few alterations done that will ensure a smoother ride, greater top speed, better mileage and less maintanance.
With a complete engine tune up, we will take your engine completely apart. Following we will replace a laarge number of the original engine parts with high performance parts. Your engine will be fitted with high-tech 4 ring psitons,
German FAG or SKF engine bearings
and rollers, the best gaskets available and of course high performance carburettors. Before assmembling the engine again, every part is thourougly checked. The engine will finally be fine tuned to ensure absolute smoothe running.
The entire process of overhauling the engine is done in a clean environment and all parts are handled with cotten gloves, so as to gurantee that no smut or small particles find their way in. |

Paint Jobs
|
|
Anything you want any way you want it.. With our heads held high we can proudly say that we have the BEST paint jobs in town. We have more than 10 years experience with custom painting bikes.
look at that reflection.. |
Our, smooth as glass, 12 layer paint jobs are exqusite. We only use the best quality paint from Dupont, ICI or BASF. Bring us a drawing of what you want and we will have it on your bike in no time. Need some inspiration, then come come by the shop and have a look at the of sample pics of paint jobs we have already done.
Flames, stripes, glitter, pearl dust, over and under painting. Ghost flames, tribal flames, shadow flames etc... our flame jobs are allways properly balanced with the sidecar, creating a smooth consis tent flow, twining from front to back of the entire bike. |
|
We use all the correct technics for every paintjob, ensuring that your paint job is as smooth as glass and that it will last for a very long time. Razor sharp edges and millimeter precise stripes. We are probably one of the few shops that know the proper tape process to allow for flawless lines. So naturally we also OEM to other CJ750 shops in Beijing and for bike retailers on the Internet. |
|
A paint job is not just a paint job.We highly reccomend that you take a tour of the shops around town and compare quality, prices and especially techniques and paint used. Ask into details. When you have a general idea of the matters, pop by our shop and we gurantee that you will be shocked when you discover just how good we are and what our prices are. It's allways difficult to imagine the finished bike so take your time and look around. When it comes to painting your bike, don't settle for anything but the best. Proper paintjobs don't come cheap and you are going to have to live with the result. Nothing makes a bike look cheaper than a lousy paintjob. |

Chrome
|
|
And we mean REAL chrome. Highest quality, mirror reflection chrome jobs, another one of our specialities.
Our chrome supplier is, without execption, the best in China. The experts at the Fu Hao factory have been trained by German technicians on the proper chroming process. Each part is polished in stages, starting with copper plating, then nickel plating, so that the end product is smooth and will not rust or oxidize. The parts are chemically bathed at the correct time and temperature to ensure that the chrome will withstand heat and not flake off. When you look at the excellent quality chrome on our bikes you will see that it shines like a mirror.
Most dealers use factory – Nan Chang chrome parts, which we at Beijing Sidecar consider the lowest grade of chrome. All of the factory "new" CJ750 sidecars come with this type of chrome. |
|
Normally you can see the polishing lines and scratch marks on the surface. Over time, usually a few months of exposure to the elements, this chrome will turn yellow and rust. This chrome gives of a dull shine and will not give you the crystal clear mirror reflection of a proper chrome job.
|
In Beijing the most commonly used chrome is the medium quality chrome from Yung Le factory. Many shops use this factory because they do a fairly decent job, definitely better than the stock Nan Chang chrome, and it is not too expensive. This chrome is shiny and is fairly smooth however the quality is not consistent because chroming varies depending on the part and also it is only polished once during the chroming process. This chrome will last a bit longer than Nan Chang chrome but will eventually rust within a year or so.
Beijing Sidecar has the best prices in town for excellent quality chrome, ask around and visit our shop. We set the standards for fair pricing. There is no need to pay more.

Polish
|
|
You ain't seen nothing till you've seen what we can do with a rag wheel and a swab. We can make your metal and aluminium parts shine like chrome.
Super polishing is nothing less than an art form. It takes years to master the proper techniques. Becasue of the different types of metal used on the Chang Jiang 750, it is of utmost importance that the polishing is done professionally, with the right tools and the right polishing compounds. Using improper tools, techniques or compounds you run the risk of overheating and thusly tainting your metal parts beyond recovery. This said, a proper polishing job will ensure that all you need is a soft cloth and some proper polishing compound to keep the metal parts with it's original luster and shine. Do note that polished engines will oxidize and tarnish thus it requires maintaining to keep its original lusture and shine. |
|
On the the stock engines you can always use detergents, gas or ergoutou to clean off dirt and oil, however a polished engines will lose its shine from using detergents or gas. So none of that.
Yes, it's polished... |
Our aluminum-polished engine looks and shines like chrome. This professional polishing process results in a smooth surface and edges that are level. On our premium Chang Jiang 750 sidecars, the transmission, back drive, front brake cover, axle mount, brake/clutch lever, steering damper screw, and kick start arm are all polished to perfection.
We can also do the same quality of polish work on the starter, distributor, gear lever, brake lever, clutch lever and even the carburettors.
We offer two types of polishing, normal and super. Our normal polishing requires about 70 work hours and our custom super polishing is over 100 work hours. The major difference is smoothness of the surface and also the joint and corner areas. Naturally we also do super polished aluminium spokes and rims. In other words, if it's metal we can make it shine.

Vintage BMW

Ride in Style... Picture yourself on one these beautiful classic BMW replicas. Cruising along the countryside on a beautifull summers day. Picnic basket and champagne in the trunk and your best girl in the sidecar..... ok, that's enough, wake up and read on
These bikes are often called BMW R71 replicas. We do a lot of these classic bikes. And for a good reason. You have to use a micrscope to find any flaws in our pinstripe paintjobs and our beautiful handmade custom leather work leaves nothing to be desired. Our pinstripes are seamless and the paint job is as smooth as glass. The width of the pinstripes is perfect at 5mm, 3mm with 3mm in the middle. Our flat glossy black with white pinstripe paint jobs is one of our most popular restoration styles. Our stripes are correctly done to the perfection.
Be extra careful when ordering pinstripes. |
|
A lot of shops do not know the properprocedure. Many pinstripe paint jobs are just clear cut over masking tape which results in ugly stripes that are not symmetrical and balanced.
|
Moreover the stripes are not post-paint treated so the stripes come out uneven with a rugged edge and usually wear off in a few months. So if you want the real pinstripe deal just drop by Beijing-Sidecar.
Take a look at the pinstripe gallery on the 'bikes' pages. we have had a few of these pinstriped classics fitted
with a BMW R75
engine. |
