Water bottle speedway sidecar
« on: February 25, 2013, 10:47:57 pm »
Did anyone catch how much the Suzuki water bottle sidecar go for on eBay. Was $2500 with an hour to go which I thought was probably still a reasonable price

Still a reasonable buy, not many come up. Had a few rides on one Doug Cottrell built for a mate based on the one he had. Third time it sent us infield at Bendigo I came to the reasoning never good having two novices on a chair and went back to my solos. Hope it goes to a good home for restoration and racing

Agree cheap price to go

Classic speedway racing as the water trucks changed the face of chairs forever Twostrokes ruled for a lot of years

All the good guys rode one at sometime

Cheers

I saw this one on a trailer at Phillip Island recently. Squish band head mod. and it appears to have a spacer under the barrel. Would have been a weapon mid 70's. I recon it it is being sold by Neil Bird.
