I'd give it a go! Side car swinging on the track is fun. Gotta try it in the dirt too. Anyone here want to help me?

I'd be in to having a go at it no matter who was riding, the swinger has a lot of control of the outfit than people think

No sidecar mounts,it's a one piece frame,,but they'll land hard for sure.

Wasp's with Yamaha XS650's taken out to over 800cc,one of the few motors that could take the punishment,Nortons were a popular choice too..Wasp still do MX sidecars.Looks like they do their own motor too.

I've just been checking out the Sidecar Cross website,and they are STILL using the XS650 motor,out to 1000cc now.As far as a motor used in top level racing that would take the cake as the longest running competitive engine,of all the engines you could choose,it's still in the mix - one hell of a motor....
Gives me some ideas for the chair I just picked up,it'll be a dualsport chair with the passenger standing using a front bar and handholds.It's the same chair I wanted for my XS1 years ago,but at $80 it was too dear for me....now I bought it for $20....but have finaly sold the XS1,bugger eh....
Click on the photos,pick some blue ones and you'll see the Yamaha...

.Wasp still do MX sidecars.
There's one in Chch that a guy bought back from the UK a decade or so ago, I was hoping to have a go on it but he'd found someone else to swing on it
