Take a motor down with you, bolt it in and ride it home, how hard can it be

Sounds like the start of an epic story. Maybe ride the FXR down, drop out the engine, slap it in the sidecar, load the FXR up on the swingers seat and ride home.

Anyone else with any helpful suggestions.

Take two chains down. The run may be longer than on a solo.

I wonder what ever happened to Adam Martins chair?? I swung on that a couple of times but he had problems with going around left hand corners due to fueling issues due to the carb running on the side of the engine (gp125) it was the motor that paul brown from blenhim ran in his solo that the Sales built up, He had a lot of big ideas with it but after a few issues he seemed to give up on it pretty quickly, but was a soild chassis

here's a suggestion for you Pumba.
How about the last Vic round at Taupo?? I know that's a while away (couple of months)...
But maybe it a few of us ask Vic Club nicely we can ride buckets with streetstocks; then someone from down here could bring it up and you could take it home????

Worm: hurry up and get a bucket... If we can get to 10 of us up here; we might actually be able to get it going here in PN again...

Fueling issues with a GP100/125 engine, try a Tillotson HL360A pumper carb. They are 24mm in the venturie and being a pumper don't care about cornering issues. Easy to tune once you get the feel for it and I made good power with the one I tried. Riekens Racing is the place to get one if your interested. http://www.out2win.com/catalog/tillotson.html

hahaha I would have thought between you and the griffiths clan the 10 would have been easy.....oh wait you need 10 riders not 80 bikes lol, may look at it in 6 months time but right now playing on any form of motorcycle just isnt an option

on a side issue .... seeing the posters on this thread seem clued up on sidecar racing >>>>> I had a neighbor in Hamilton that had a motorbike/sidecar in his shed, I cant remember his name tho.....he spent years working on modding it and getting it back running again.

Apparently he was in a bad crash on it in a race and lost his leg .. from memory I think his swinger died in the crash or something like that... he was determined to modify the machine and prove he can race it with one leg ..... when we moved away from Hammie in 1995 he said he was almost ready for the test run to see if he can get permissions needed to race again.

Anyone familiar with him or if he got back on the track again??
