CB400F w/sidecar
« on: February 09, 2006, 04:24:36 pm »
Here's a picture from the February 1982 issue of Motorcyclist magazine that 650 lent me so I could scan an article on the CB650.  This picture, in an article on sidecars, shows a CB400F mounted with a Thompson Cyclecar sidecar.

The "bubble trike" from the original Mad Max was powered by a 750 engine.

I think he's right.   75 or 76 Cb550F actually.
