Flexit sidecar and K Bikes -- looking for formerly accessible Flexit info... Sat 20 Jun 2020 - 3:03

Folks,
Now that I have two (aaaugh! haha..) 19901 K-bikes and a long-wished-for Flexit sidecar, I discovered that the Yahoo Flexit Owners' Group was deactivated by Yahoo in February of this year, along with all other Yahoo groups... grrr. As it sometimes happens, I find myself a bit late to the party.
Having observed a Flexit or two on this forum, I ask for any pointers to a blog-type knowledge group for Flexits which will likely be beyond the interests of this excellent forum. For example, my new-to-me Flexit hangs off of its long-mated K100RS4 Valver... I eventually intend to try and hang the Flexit off of my nearly pristine K75 instead, and therefore I seek information on creating new hanging brackets with appropriate geometry. Additionally, my particular Flexit has visibly had a productive and adventurous life, with prior owners removing things, adding other things etc. etc... I am hesitant to reverse such changes without really knowing what I'm doing. I could greatly benefit from plugging into a group of fellow Flexit owners with oodles of experience compared to my limited knowledge.
Any advice will be truly welcome.
Thanks in advance!
