Is that wiscombe hill climb ?

Certainly is, taken last September when I was racing (falling off) there Had my first off of the day on that very same bend.

That particular outfit has been competing in the NHCA series for a few years now and is very competative.

Looks like a trials chair to me. Can imagine you need some extra weight

Your wish is my command:

Why the secondary alternator? would it not be better/easier to fit one of the uprated standard versions?

@VAL.H.

It's not secondary but primary . The other one will be replaced by a pully. As a matter of fact it's not decided yet. Since, due to lack of time, the project has been at a standstill for some time, I had a chance to have some reflections on structural matters. It might very well prove that I will need the room where the alternator is for some structural members, so in that case I will go for an upgraded version of the oem one.

Try again, Karl.

I'm not allowed to add attachment's for some strange reason. Must be my past life catching up with me .
Safe riding Karl.

Hydraulic or mechanical brake?

Show him laughing gas's outfit and he might change his mind Although, it's not quite an airhead

 

[Sylvester]

There are some amazing engineering solutions on this thread, well impressed. I've been in a sidecar once in my life and to be honest, I was scared fartless. It was an Yamaha XS 650 engined powered MX rig with a mad man at the controls. Made my Husky 500 two-stroke seem safe. I normally laugh in the face of certain death and tweak the nose of the spindley killer fish. I cannot imagine being on the road in/on one. Gentlemen I salute you. (But you are all mad IMHO!).

I had a Gemini D/A on a 900 Diversion.

I now have a 100GS outfit.
Will post some pics when I come back.
I'm off to catch the ferry now as I'm on my way to the Tauerntreffen in Austria.

And I'll be at The Dragon Rally.
