Motorcycle Sidecar. Litterarely.

sidecar1sidecar2Nowadays, a motorcycle sidecar might not arouse the same ecstasy as it used to, but the latest vehicle by Francois Knorreck is a sidecar with a difference that gives an entirely new definition to sidecars. Dubbed “Snaefell,” the 1000cc Laverda motorcycle has 3 exhausts, and offers a luxury ride in comparison to regular sidecars. The designer has employed different parts of a Kawasaki 1000RX and a number of cars to accomplish this machine. It took him 10 years and nearly 15,000 Euros to combine biking and luxury car ride in a single vehicle (thank you Jeff).

    That is Brilliantl Top Self,! Engineering at it’s Finest! At least from the Picture that I can see, .Agree with Jim C, More Photo’s. AND BY THE WAY CYRILL, for that Price I need to move some Assets around, BUt I WOULD TAKE 2 for 15,000 Euros I guess is about $24,000 US, I think you are missing a ZERO in the Figures. It is more like 150,000 Euro in the Developing and Engineering of this Vehicle. Even in CHINA, well possibly that cheap for the next one!
