Best fun I’ve ever had with my knickers on!!

'How can we make the course a bit tougher?"

"Stick an extra wheel on and make two of 'em share a bike...."

Never tried it but seen the outfits a couple of times and always been in awe. Sidecar MX is one thing but wrestling one round an Enduro looks a whole other level.

Is that based on a 500/520/525 motor or has it got an old LC4 in it?

My brothers got a Honda Seley ex works I think it’s called - whatever that means - he bought it brand new and still has it from many years ago and it is still goes like a ballastic missile, it’s an awesome bit of kit, the last time I was astride it, it left me on my backside on the road with roars of laughter from the bruv
needless to say I’m still looking for a triumph tiger cub - more in my league

I see a company called TTS on the 44 teeth channel. They had a Harley they tuned to 220bhp at the rear wheel.

My baby 390 Bent Berg - she's a feisty little number! Got an '86 CR500 in the shed that'll be my retirement restoration project.

I bet that’s interesting to ride… it’s got stage 1, might treat her to a 2

Shame the 70 degree husabergs got shelved, was finally something a little different that actually worked. mate had a 390 like yours and it was a bit of a weapon. Used to call his the C90 as it always reminded me of a honda cub engine on steroids.

I read the bit about the CR as it being your retirement fund - seeing what the 500's fetch now probably isn't far off! Had an 86 CR but in 125, back when it was too old to be competetive racing but before they became collectable.

After everything from a Honda SP1 to a Ducati 996SPS I’ve settled on this old family heirloom which I had restored. I can scare the sh1t out of myself at 30 mph which means I’m far more likely to make it to another decade of stalking, I never learnt the skill of riding sports bikes slowly…

Ours had the lc4 620. Bit heavy but bomb proof. Done us well for 13 years.
