247,
We built a side hack out of two pushies so the passenger could pedal as well!

New motor runs great electric start is beautiful .pity it wont go around corners now -motor is heavier and further forward ,throttle on turns right ,thre times in the same place  well bypass that bit go up the big hill,then go down big hill under a little bit of power (straight towards the flagmarshall) apply brakes to go into a l/h corner  bike turns right and over we go .had to get the passenger to lift the bike off me.funny . will put heavier front shocks in

All sounds pretty normal to me ;)  Basic shitload of a handful. In sidecars that is what it is all about.Two persons straining to manhandle a super heavy, bloody powerful, cantankerous evil beast  across the finish line first , whilst trying to keep the three wheels pointing at the earth..... and don't the spectators love it!!!!!
