78E & HRD sidecar outfit - Upwey, Victoria

Nice looking rig - CLICK







" A profesionally built sidecar outfit, The engine was rebuilt to NEW condition some years ago ( I know , I did it)  with 1200 Wiseco kit. Not a whole lot of use since then. Brilliant  leading link front fork with floating calipers, small amount of dive built in. Steel front guard The sidecar is really rigidly attached. It steers somewhat like a gokart. Where you look, you go. Its has 16" front wheel and 15" Michelin car tyre on the back. This is a proper, fast , good handling , great braking outfit.  It has a 13ltr extra tank in the boot with an electric pump. It has Koni's all round. I fitted a Honda CB900 copy front fairing. Guzzi horns. I fitted a larger rear master cylinder (from the XS750)  plus a small  disc and caliper to the 10" alloy sidecar wheel. The rear brakes are coupled. Using all brakes together results in your A/C joints meeting your scapula. It will really stop. It has had very little use in the past 7 or 8 years. The red paint is very good. The black paint is a little tatty. I have to fit a new Master cylinder kit which is on it's way here. Otherwise it is roadworthy.  The outfit is still registered for a month or so.  You can't test ride it unless you are a skilled outfit pilot or have one with you. It is powerful and quick. Happy bidding. It is here to sell!. The Yamaha is advertised all over and if I have to remove it I will...Reason for sale?
