Welcome to Old Bike Mart!

In this issue:

Sidecars I have known
Mick Payne has been thinking! Stop sniggering at the back, please. When he was writing a regular sidecar column for Motorcycle Sport (pre Leisure) in the mid to late 1990s, it was probably during the last gasps of the industry. In the days of the Blue and Green 'Uns, Britain had a thriving, although declining, number of sidecar builders with many focusing on family models, at a time when the three-wheeled car was also very popular.

Yamaha’s first generation 250s
Despite being very much a two-stroke oriented company, Yamaha was painfully aware that oilburning stinkwheels motorcycles had a limited future, and Steve Cooper takes a look at how the company took measures to change its fortunes.

And much more!
