SD & COMBI 1924


(english version on bottom)

 

Flat tanks represent a source of pride for vintage bikes lovers. During my last period spent in London, I buy this SD with a sidecar,  regularly MOT in UK.

After some restoration works to the engine and to the gearbox, I gain the Italian plate and now I can ride freely my bike either as solo or as sidecar. In order to have the Italian award of historicity, the sidecar body replacement is necessary. So I decide to build myself a new sidecar body; works are challenging but I succeed in this enterprise.

In order to accomplish the project, that I assigned to this bike, I happily participate to the 2014 Banbury Run and  climb the Col de l’Iseran. Future projects for this bike are to bring, without profits, young brides to their weddings, using the sidecar, varnished in the classic Parma violet colour.
