Horribly agricultural and slow but would like to have one in pace of a second car. Saw a 'barn find' one in bits on a trailer yesterday in Stansted Mountfitchet - so it's either just ceom from ebay or will soon be on it - didn't have a camera though (I really should get a modern 'phone then I could take this unexpected piccies!)

The importer was in Hull near me 'Neval' Motorcycles I think it was NevMason and Alan Voase hence the name. Remember going into their shop and they  had loads of dealer take of Honda exhausts that were warranty claims from Main Dealers in the 70's. I bought a pair of 250G5  exhausts and they looked brand new to me and I couldn't find any blemishes on them.

Those bikes definitely were agricultural though...I meant the Russian ones not the G5 ;)

This was my Jawa combo, back in the day (some 20 years ago)

My current sidecar count is 2 complete but project outfits one being my 500/4 I also have a bmw r90/6 with a Busmar double adult chair, leading link forks, twin plugged engine. Pulled wheelies in 3rd. However i vastly prefer the 500/4 outfit with stock forks - way more quirky. Steering which is fun. The bmw could be ridden by anyone. Probably single hand on the bars all day - technically fantastic but that removes the fun.

I remember PDI ing a Ural with sidecar years ago and the side car was on the opposite side---By god you needed strong arms to keep it out of the gutter!!

They banned right-hand chairs, for some unfathomable reason.
