Using this and the TTR250 whilst I build my Armstrong up (progress is slow, though my new headlight unit did arrive yesterday)
...because everyone needs a tractor alternator slung between the bike and sidecar, and running on a pulley from the crankcase

I love the look of marks contra.......bikes, they are so.........er...........user friendly.
They are made the same way as some of the hard core bikers machines round here, we have one guy called Mole, with a CX500 plus sidecar who uses it to pull coal out of his mine.
Looks just like this.

Have you never seen "Kelly's Heroes"?!

I can imagine you riding into school with Wagners' Cry of the Valkyrie blasting out!
"scares the shit out of the geeks" ((gooks) Apocalypse Now).
