Photo courtesy of Huhu Uet, a R75/5 modified for sidecar use. I'm not sure how the low seat combined with rear sets would work out, unless Huhu is a midget: Image

Is that an NSU in the background?

And yes, he must be a short and limber guy. Why rearsets on a hack?

Interesting that, when looking at that picture, that's the thing that you question. ;)

Love the blow holes on the side of the case. I guess that's the solution for a stuck engine breather...

The faring and tank are pretty cool and unique I must say. Hand built or aftermarket?
What is that braking system...dual calipers on a single monster size disk? Again...unique.

And set up for anti-lift, which can be almost as much of a problem with Earles forks. Somthing fancy at the back brake too.
