Great scenery

Is the horn sound at 5.38 standard on the K16 ?

Interesting leaning combinations.

Must be disconcerting for the passenger. What is the advantage of such a setup vs a conventional rigid upright combination where you don't need to balance it or put your feet down?

I remember years ago a firm made one similar called a sidewinder it was like a tray with a wheel bolted to the bike and you leaned the same .

And if I recall correctly you could ride a big bike without the full licence .
:yes:

I remember that-it brought your licensing requirements under the same legislation as things like Reliant Robins!

Yes, I remember the Sidewinder. A tea tray to get round the then new 250cc L plates rules.

I can't think that the K16 combination is for any loop hole reason though.

Music was truly awful, liked the sidecar outfits, one shocking piece of riding, he was lucky nothing was coming the other way. my mates just bought a 1600GTL arrived today I'm riding it tonight, let you know what I think of it :tank:

The GTL is a bit of a barge, not really comparable with the GT.  :popcorn:
