Is it just my perception or is that a plastic model?
Looks cool - but is it real?

Thats exactly the bike I hade in 1985 but it was candy apple red. Beautyfull Cosworth 1000cc engine .
Torque unlimited and would rev endless. But very very heavey.
-
It is real, is in England races in their VMX Sidecar comp a Wasp Cosworth/Wasp, you can order and buy one the same new still from Wasp in England.... :)
I have a quote for a Black one same from a Wasp agent from about two years ago. With import duties freight and taxes $62565 AUD , but the Oz dollar has gone up a bit since then........... 8) ;)

Great clips! Outfits look like fun - unstable fun - but fun all the same!
-
The quicker you go , the more stable they get ;)
-
on the pipe are 2 Nortons 5 Yammies and two other British,
must find out what British breed they are ;D
-
Sidecars Unstable !try stepping off your solo without some sort of stand or a tree to prop it up on !!!!!!!! >:( Just the riders and owners fit the unstable tag...................... ;)
-
Awesome luv the sound and that does look like a lot of fun.Yeehah.

Looks like you would be up for some sidecar duties then one day Hilly??? Easy the Honda 1 down 4 up smooth..ish four cylinder motor, at least 80+ hp to play with, handling braking and suspension are a bit ... (and oh you never need or want fifth gear cos that is very very um arr scary motivational velocity off road 8) But what VMX solo sounds like a raging offroad754 ?
The Swinger is easier still ! sort of.... hang as far off as ya can for grim death to the right if turning right and likewise if left. One small observation VMX sidecars are roughly 4 times as tiring and rough on ya body as solos... meaning 4 laps = equals 16... Dont be surprised or upset if your nose bleeds or you vomit swinging ..it happens due to the travel sickness. physical stress and unfit bodies.. ;) Cheers Tim

I feel like that now after 6 races today Hah and yeah i'm up for it .I heard they had the outfits at the VCM meet at Barrabool last week.

I can't see a downside - I'm surprised more people aren't into it...
-
especially being mostly Yammies here in WA, easist to work. ::)
Lucky one Norton here has a good mechanic/passenger ;D
-
Great clips .. gets the blood pumping watching that ...
cheers
