Default sidecar frame
Hi Radek,

To my knowledge, no WD/CO was ever sold to the Army with a sidecar.

Norton has made sidecars for the forces: I have seen pictures of 16H models with a box sidecar, and of course the Big 4 had a sidecar with a driven wheel. But these chassis don't look like the one on your picture.

I've heard stories about BSA M20's with a Swallow sidecar, but haven't got any pictures unfortunately... But if my memory serves my right, Henk Joore (the BSA M20 website webmaster) is busy with such a project. I'll ask him if he knows if this is a BSA sidecar...

By the way, would you have the frame and engine numbers from this bike for my register please? I have already found a few in Poland, all of them ex-RAF bikes...

Regards,
Jan
