Title: Re: There's a fine line... Post by jcstokes on 10/28/14 at 15:55:47 I've seen old footage of this being done in my country in the late 'forties or early 'fifties. It was a race between two "chariots", it was done on a horse racing course or a sports ground. Not a public highway. |
Title: Re: There's a fine line... Post by Kris01 on 10/28/14 at 16:54:30 That can't possibly be legal either. I wonder if the cop would just scratch his head wondering what to give him a ticket for! |
Title: Re: There's a fine line... Post by MnSpring on 10/28/14 at 17:02:58 Tremendously Intelligent. Just wonder if, all that, 'skill', if put to a different task, would amount to a, 'better', thing ? |

I think there's a law against riding in trailers. maybe he'll get 2 tickets as he can't keep a hand on the handlebar. |

I've been looking around a bit trying to find out more about this. I have found another video where he is in a gravel parking lot, and another where he is driving really slow on his way to Sturgis. The brakes appear to be on the chariot wheels. There appears to be a cable from the lower left side of the chariot that runs up along the left side of the bike.....I would guess that is the throttle. Clutch is probably a Rekluse. http://www.rekluse.com/exp_hd.shtml The bike is held upright by the chariot, as you can see the bike leaning a bit in the gravel parking lot as he drives/rides toward the camera. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG-Riw26Sx0 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG-Riw26Sx0[/media] |
