You don't need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

Are you going to use it with or without the chair?

Re: My MT500
cheers bunker, i will hold you to it!
Hopefully, will have the sidecar completed to use with it, as i quite like the idea.. just completly stripping the bike now, to rebuild once its all been sorted and looking all nice and pretty!
Oh and id never thought that i'd have to use so much WD40 to piece this thing apart!!
I will keep everything posted...

Re: My MT500
Nice one!
Will you put a bigger engine in it if running a side car? And how will it affect kicking it over with the sidecar in the way?
I have seen a picture of one (I think) but it look beefed up!
Good luck with the project. It takes determination to get one of them started....just ask Paull.
Cheers,
