A while since I've been on here. I've been making this...

I really like that. Beautiful metal work

 

[Banjo]

Amazing creation. I wish I had that level of skill.

That's nice!

Wow how nice you all are! Thank you!

There is a build thread for it but it's on another forum (a USA one) so I'm not sure if I should link to it on here.

I've just won a old Carlton bike on eBay that I may do something crazy with. If I do I'll put a build thread on here.

It looks fabulous. I too wish I had the skills to do that.

What a fantastic build. Should stop SMIDSYs I'm sure posting a link to the other forum would be acceptable & appreciated on here

Ah noooooo I've just realised that most of the pictures on that build thread were on photobucket and now gone!
Sorry

How heavy is it to ride?

 

[loopybike]

I never weighed it but it does ride really nice. I spent a lot of effort in the frame design. One of my mates used to race motorbike sidecars. He helped me with the geometry. Afterwards he commented "yeah the will be stable up to about 100mph"! Lol

 

[loopybike]

The sidecar frame articulates so the bike can lean but the sidecar stays level. It also rides over bumps independently to the bike

You need to fashion a cool space suit for him as well.
