Rotohak - Custom BMW sidecar rig with 300 HP twin turbo Mazda RX7 engine in trunk of sidecar.
Looks like a 2002 BMW 1200RT with a California sidecar but the BMW motor is a fake - just valve covers on the side of the faring which hides a 15 gallon fuel cell.
The engine drives both rear wheels through a VW automatic transaxle, directly to the sidecar wheel and through a cog belt to the motorcycle wheel. Shifting is done with a twist grip on the left handle bar like a Vespa.
Not for the faint of heart. This rig is very fast and a handful on hard acceleration. Under normal driving conditions it's a pussy cat and can cruise at any speed with one hand on the bars.
Featured in numerous motorcycle magazines both nationally and in Europe.

ReplyDeleteno confusion necessary.deathwish in custom upholstery. love it.
ReplyDeleteThat front suspension is certainly unusual, but I can’t figure out that steering at all.
ReplyDeleteI think it is nicely fabricated, but then I am not really sure what I am looking at. Wow!
