I just wish I could find some details. From what I can see it's a Hillman IMP engine and trans reversed so the engine in ahead not behind. Actualy it's a Sunbeam Horizon engine as it says 930cc's not 875cc's. The diff must be welded solid as there is just a take off on one side for the rear drive. I dont' know if they flipped the crown wheel and pinon or reversed it in the drive mechanism. It's obviously home built and registered as a bike. I found the pics on MotorPunk at one of their sprints. Looks like more fun than a barrel full of monkeys on speed if you have a death wish.

That's BS. You can't fire lead bullets through a Glock. The polygonal barrel fouls too easily, you need to use jacketed rounds.

Wait... German engineering and Mexican know-how? It IS a VWAG product!

To me that rig reeks of poseur, are those drag radials? The original one is achingly cool though.

That is not upholstery, It's fancy sound deadener!

It's padding for the reflex action after touching a blazing hot motor while trying to put your luggage in the wrong end...
A Trabant at yesterday's Steuben Day Parade. I wonder it there was a point as these were falling off the assembly line where some Communist Party members were starting to wonder if Communism might not be the way to go.
