Hmmm...Finn has loads of dough....great investment....think of the bragging rights if you OWNED it....hmmmm.:whistle:

Some memorabilia nut will swoop down it.
but having seen it do the job:2thumbsup smelt it, heard it, touched it and having the road as my test track thats enough for me;)

[Goblin]

I just hope a Kiwi buys it so it stays in NZ....not like the Brittens:weep:

Seems a bit silly spending $200k on something that goes slower than the engine's donor vehicle and is a mode of transport (sidecars) that's virtually dead these days. If you really want to do something though I guess...

[rat]

Sidecars are not dead:nono:
And this is not a sidecar its a drag bike with an extra wheel.:yes:
(It won't go round right hand corners).
Yes you could put a wheelbarrow wheel on the donor bike throw a pillion on the back and beat the record that this bike set.
But this bike has alot of potential to go faster than the world record.
But who the hell is going to pay anythig for it, It's only worth what the engine is worth.
But this is only my opinion
