Put it together 1 week and 300+ miles ago.

The Tiger / Trek has complete it's first trip.

Rear brake seal seems to have died and one of the front shockers has died. Everything else is fine and dandy! Now getting 12-13km/l, 20% better economy, it's easier to ride, quicker and faster! Gotta be happy with that!
And the independent sidecar brake works fantastic, but I need to be very judicious when there's not much weight in the outfit.

Does anyone know what Brand and model of car this is?

NitroMax · 05-24-2011, 10:14 AM

Yep, it's a Dutch build by Teo Lamers, a very well knows Guzzi specialist.

Saw it last year at the Italday, very well made

Page on his website about it ( in Dutch of course ;) ):

The sidecar look's like it's a Watsonian GP700 - http://www.watsonian-squire.com/gp700_sidecar.html

Sidecarjohn · 05-24-2011, 12:52 PM

Agree with Outfit, everything about it indicates a Watsonian GP700, unless someone is copying them again.

What make and model of sidecar is this?

There was even a roll of lifesavers in the box with my order! Wow what a difference that spring made. Hwy 129 is a great place to discover handling descirpancies. It was really interesting with the sand salt scattered in many of the 318 curves.
I'm lovin this side car.

On my full size pic, I can see that the step has the Watsonion logo and right near the hood is the Union Jack with "Grand Prix" spelled out.
