Hi, I have a sidecar on my bike and the rear suspension is too soft. I have up rated to sidecar springs but it’s not enough.
Does anyone know if an Avo spring over damper fit between the original springs and would it help?

The AVO will not fit between the two original spring boxes but they can be fitted with a wide variety of spring strengths. 275 lbs/inch for a normal solo and, I think, up to 450 lbs/inch. That might be enough for your combo. If that is not enough then you can use two coil over units intended for use on normal swinging arm rear ended bikes. 10.5" between centres, each one replacing the original spring boxes and you will have to play with spring pre-loads and damping. There are many of those available on the internet.
