Here is an idea on "Proof"
« on: March 09, 2008, 11:20:34 PM »
 Had a good question emailed to me on what is suitable proof of a machines eligibility for whatever class.
This scan of a "Two Wheels" magazine from May 1974 page four (part page in attached photo I think) I used as proof for my Honda 754 sidecar. Anyone else like to post some good examples for all maybe use as examples in their own quests?

 The pictured sidecar is a "SSP'  oops...in meant  "SPP"   make ,running a K series 754.   Lucky Walter of YSS fame was there at the time and can still  remember the screaming howl of the 4 cylinder beast working hard and fast. What a  fantastic mixture of big heavy makes and models competing.

 I have amended this post as ,,well the grammar and syntax was pretty awful!! :-[ Cheers Tim

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Yes I still have one of Robert Grogg's front ends with the original girlings and the swiss dirt on it. Thats what I copied my later sidecar front ends from . To this day that geometrie works great . Tim you mixed up a couple of letters . The frames where called SPP . The Hallers now live in USA and their kids still race .Robert Grogg still lives in Switzerland , but like me he can not recall to ever have raced a sidecar. ;)
