Having owned a motorcycle sidecar outfit, I can recommend them for transporting children. This is because: (1) You cannot hear the children, in the sidecar, whinging. (2) If, for some reason, you can somehow hear the child whinging, simply remove the muffler from the motorcycle, which will drown out the annoying noise.

Another probably little known fact. In early America the rural roads being dirt would be quite difficult to navigate and although a Model T was cheaper to buy than a Harley with sidecar the Harley with sidecar was easier to get unstuck on muddy roads gaining them favor. Also early Harley sidecars had an adjustable sidecar wheel so you could move wheel out to match existing ruts in the road. I have ridden on dirt where width doesn’t match ruts in road and it is very difficult.

I thought sidecars became popular because a young man could have a motorbike as his personal transport and then quickly add the sidecar when he got a wife. I suppose that's an over-simplification.

That's right, especially in the UK, where it was a lot cheaper to keep the bike and add a sidecar than buy and insure a car, which would also require a car driving licence. This also led to the popularity, in the 50s and 60s, of 3-wheel cars, which were classed as motorcycles for licensing and taxation purposes, so could be driven without taking a car test, and had lower running costs, even if they did handle like a giraffe on roller skates.

What you should want is another classic bike with a sidecar. A Triumph, Enfield, Harley, maybe a Moto Guzzi. I had a Ural. It was fun to ride when it was working. The company has the best warranty in the business. You'll be using it if you get one! Seriously, if you're going to plonk around town slowly on short rides with the dog or grandkids, the Ural is fine. But if you expect real utilitarian use and plan to ride it as real transportation, get something modern. With the Ural, I'm sure the 1930s German engineering is solid; it's the modern Russian, now Kazakhstan, quality control that is the concern. Maybe Kazakh quality control is a step or ten better than the Russian quality control from 2014. Good luck if you go that route!
