Loan sidecar available for Cemetery Circuit

[sidecar bob]

I have been speaking with Chris Lawrence (Racer 40) this arvo & he has asked me to post up the following.
He has avaliable to use at the Cemetary Circuit, an old CBR1000 powered short (front engined) sidecar.
This was going to be ridden by Nodrog off here, but of course he has a splendid & fully functioning ZX10 outfit of his own now.
Anyone wishing to use this outfit will need a full senior MNZ licence, with three or more stamps & will need to pay for entry & enter the event themselves.
The machine will be transported to the track, so if you are racing a solo there, it wont be a lot of extra effort to join the sidecar guys for the day.
The outfit is for sale for $3000, so if you really like it, you can take it home!!
P.M Chris or I if interested.
Cheers,
Steve.

I would assume this is a "You fuck it, you fix it" kind of deal?

[sidecar bob]

I would assume this is a "You fuck it, you fix it" kind of deal?

Its of pretty industrial construction, & it would be fair to inform prospective punters at this point that you will be quite unlikely to win the event on it. But yeah, I guess good manners apply, probably a bit of cash, rather than actually take it home & fix it would be more apropriate if it gets broken.

[tigertim20]

pics of said rig?

[sidecar bob]

pics of said rig?

Its had a big tidy up recently, & im not sure how to post photos up.
Maybe Nodrog could put some up of him riding it a few months back, although it looks a lot better now.

[Drew]

If we can finance it, Alan and I will have our hands way up.

[sidecar bob]

I guess if someone stumps up $3000 & buys it before Christmas, they will have first option to ride it. :niceone:

Fully functioning may not quite be the right terminology bro. These are the only photos i have of the said machine,

it is the best modern short bike I have ever ridden.

Mr Lawrence has informed me that it now wears brand new F2 bodywork, so I suspect it will now look something like this
http://farm1.staticflickr.com/172/394447875_f9c91563e0.jpg

Somebody really should just buy it, its a bargin, it is a complete working sidecar (already assembled) for the same amount as what my engine cost me.

[sidecar bob]

It should be pointed out that while this is the best modern sidecar that Nodrog has ridden, it is coincedentally also the only one he has ridden to date.
Chin up Gordy, your outfit will be better than this one & then this one will be the second best you have ever ridden.
The bottom pic of #4 is now the pink #28 bike that Tracey & Jo ride & is safely tucked away in my garage.

[Madness]

It looks better now Gordy's not on it ya mean?

[nodrog]

I still reckon I would whip you and Scrivy on it. Thats why Scrivy decided to commentate the last race, he knew too.

why are you so mean?

looks sweet, especially if its wearing f2 fairings now.. wonder if my bike would fit under f2 skins

if on the off chance my bike makes it to north island for the barry sheene, i recon ill leave it up there and join ya for boxing day street race too. Will be up there anyway for xmas and the bike would be up there anyway too so why not!
still big maybe tho. need a money tree

[Fast Eddie]

grab it and slot either your R1 or GSXR1000 motor into it and you'd have a ball in the south island scene bro. Chop chop.. its only 3 grand.. i spend more on expensive cheeses

why does everybody think that they can grab a twenty or thirty year old rig and chuck the latest fastest donk in it and go back out there?
Makes little sense as they just end up handling like a fucking waterbed.

[nodrog]

This outfit started life with an RG400 engine in it, so is already at the limits of its chassis.
This is the reason we now have log books, so the scrutineers can track the life of a chassis.
We currently have a Shelbourne out there that started life in the early '70's with an air cooled RD350 engine, now running a GSXR1000.
Try putting a GSXR100 engine in a standard 1973 RD350 road bike, same result.

Could you set it back up to run the rg400 and run it with the classics,

[sidecar bob]

Could you set it back up to run the rg400 and run it with the classics,

Yes, im sure it could have an RG installed back in it, but it would run F2. It would be better off with a Jap 600 in it if it was converted to F2.
Fortunately I have a couple of 2000 R6 sidecar converted engines avaliable for $600.
Classic must be non Jap, all components commercially avaliable prior to 1976.

Spyda, our 20 year old rig has a 13 year old motor in it, and it handles.............. well, a bit better than a waterbed.....:shutup:
Personally, I'd love to go back to air cooled methanol 1300's with their super flexible frames!

Correct done by both an engineer and someone who knows how to ride a sidecar BTW, and checked regularly by someone with a fair bit of skills in that area.
I was referring to the theory of buying something old and simply chucking a late model donk in it without even thinking what else needs upgrading
Sidecar Bob mention the shelbourne that had a 1000cc engine in it when it originally had a 350cc two stroke, this first 1000cc engine put in this rig was done in the uk at I beleive the shelbourne factory, bit differnt to what i was talking of really.

Maybe were talking about two different outfits.
Apparently Shelbourne owners phoned the factory a year or so back for some advice or parts & when they told the guy at the factory what was in it now, he hung up the phone.
Recently I had reason to call Dave Molyneaux, 16 times IOM TT winner & the builder & of our pink bike that he won the '96 TT on.
The first question he asked was, "what engine does it run now" I said "same as it was built with". Only then, it seemed, was he happy to advise me on certain aspects of the bike.
I fully agree with you Spyda, many a great sidecar has been ruined with a repower.
Do you think Kevin Wendt's 1327 methanol injected GSX outfit was slower than it is now with a GSXR1100w engine in it?
I dont think so!!!
I'll dig up the clip of that weapon shortly.

[sidecar bob]

Heres a clip of Kevin Wendt on the 97 bike.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdHUVu290BI

I was speaking with a Canadian sidecar racer at the classic festival in Feburary, & he said that Lind & Hart came back to the USA after that series & said to him, we were beaten by a bike without a faring!
That machine is the older sister ship to Fast Eddie's Agip outfit.

Yeah, all the time, but its kinda like a pitbull thats had its nuts chopped off. It will make you sad after watching that.

Yeah, I guess it kinda shoots blanks now.
Better than the lot of most of the other ones in that race though, chopped up & left to rust in a field.

[jellywrestler]

Better than the lot of most of the other ones in that race though, chopped up & left to rust in a field. unlike this one

[scrivy]

Is it still in Kippens shed? Why doesn't he sell it?

I remember when I first started racing sidecars, I would just stand and look in awe at how awesome that machine was!
It truely was an impressive machine at the time. Still brings back great memories!!

[sidecar bob]

unlike this one

That was the best sidecar in NZ in '88.
The presentation was beyond anything I had ever seen.
I remember Andy flipping it at the Taihape Gumboot GP about mid '89 i think.
We got seriously on the piss & other stuff, in a tiny upstairs room at the Royal Hotel. on the corner in Taihape afterwards.
There was about 15 of us stuffed into this room the size of a shoe box.
I dismantled the stereo out of my Morris van & reassembled it in the room, battery & all!!
Ahh, great times.

[Fast Eddie]

that still looks sweet even today (to me haha)

[jellywrestler]

Simply because he doesn't want to see it barstardised like every other original sidecar that people put their heart and soul into was... you know a GSXR1000 put into it etc. It's taken a fair bit of stress over it's life and the reality is most of it's components are at the end of their days and who really wants to be on it when that day comes along as some parts can be checked others will just let go without warning.


Actually the reason It's been photographed is we were looking at getting it out for the 60th at the Cemetery Circuit for the legends parade, it appears however it's invite only and we don't seem to qualify for it despite 19 wins on the track and it being a Wanganui built machine!

are Paeroa Street Races still on for sidecars? I wanna get in on that too..

[racer40]

Yeah i remenber the Kippen machine well, it was way advanced compared to most of the others, I was standing on the corner where it went over at Taihape, i was racing my yz 125 mx bike there. Oh by the way sold the little sidecar last nite to a new team, who wont be picking it up until xmas, so another new pairing racing it at the Barry Sheene who race bucket sidecars in Auck, Rick & Henk. one more thing, Bob & Scrivy did we race the year after that video from Ruapuna ?

Bob & Scrivy did we race the year after that video from Ruapuna ?

Yip! We raced the GP at Ruapuna in Jan 1988. :banana: Does that make us old??

Looks like it was an awsome machine, is it an all alloy frame? As Chris said i've brought the CBR1000 sidecar, looking forward to running it next year, hopefully we won't be too much of a mobile chicane on it. Rick and Henk brought my previous bucket sidecar from me and Henk still hasn't shouted from when he fell off it, mind you just before he fell off i think he was laughing that they had just passed me on my new one which had died.

My bad , we were probably sulking the next day:Oops: Who's swinging on the CBR Henk or Rick?

[Henk]

He did shout, but you probably didn't turn up the next day.

What she said. Fair is fair though I guess, let me know when you are going to turn up again and I'll bring some beer. Next meeting would be good.

[Henk]

My bad , we were probably sulking the next day:Oops: Who's swinging on the CBR Henk or Rick?

That would be me. Rick driving and me swinging seems to be the best combination on the bucket chair so hopefully it translates to the real thing.

My mum lives in Paeroa so if you needed somewhere to crash we could put you up, should be there with my sidecar too

Thats odd.
I raced sidecars for the first time '87 '88 season with Scrivy on the Dolph Built GPZ1100, & thats when I met Andy Kippen. '88 '89 I raced a GSXR1100g solo, & it was after that.
I think we had too much fun Spyda. Maybe were both right!!
Annie was swinging when it went over I think.

Maybe, like I said Gumboot GP ran for two years only, one was 1986 the other was either 85 or 87 I'd put my money on 1985. Annie was the swinger, broke her pelvis and I think ended up marrying the physio that sorted her out, definitely wasn't 1989 as that's the year I started swinging for Andy.

Yip,Definitely 85,I rode my TZ350 at the first one and I sold it at the end of that year to the late Chris Dawes,Same year "Huggy" was killed at Manfeild..

Wow, my brain is really fucked up then. I left my van in Taihape travelled the next day to Dave Beresford's in Bulls for more punishment on the back of a mate's virtually brand new GB400. What year did they first come out?
Scrivy had just left to fly planes in Aussie by this stage, so was nowhere to be found racing for the next four years.
He was the only one of any of us that never smoked dope at that time, so we'll se which year he rekons it was.

Lee Bradford and I are keen - we even have matching leathers - learning how to ride a side car at wangas would be interesting:Punk:

Agreed - a test day at manny would be ideal - but what ever goes

[Fast Eddie]

road testing near trees is the only way to learn <_<

[Fast Eddie]

is this bike still being ridden at Wangas?

[sidecar bob]

A bloke off here bought it for that reason.
It was at Hampster, labour weekend.

Doesn't someone off that bike owe a slab of piss?

Last I heard it will have another novice crew (not the new owner) on board for Wanganui. But that may have changed.

[ac3_snow]

Entries are in for Wanganui (a while ago now), and accommodation booked. So yes this will be at wangas sporting number 82 come say hello :niceone:

Note we are not the new owners either, not sure what the deal is with that.
