Big Sidecar Will Tote a Small Crowd (Jan, 1956)
Big Sidecar Will Tote a Small Crowd
An overgrown sidecar turns this motorcvcle into a family affair. Put out by a London manufacturer, it’s a snug fit for five: three adults in the sidecar itself, and two on the motorcycle.
A roll top and hinged windshield (with twin wipers) can be opened for air.
More like a car with a motorcycle hung on.
“Not for use in mountainous terrain”
Or one average American in the sidecar. (Because we’re so fat, see?)
Maximum speed: 3km/hr.
That’s about 5, 000 furlongs per fortnight.
Just so you know . . . .
Don isn’t kidding, just plug “3 kilometers per hour in furlongs per fortnight =” into Google. I wonder if a seized engine might be a likely result — an over-hard working air-cooled engine does that sometimes.
