Hello, I'm going to build a second K75 combo. The first one is a naked K75 with a rader big EML GT3E sidecar. I've traveled all over Europe with this bike and it runs fine. Maybe you have found my website about the build, http://halflive.hostei.com/index_en.html
The new one should be a litte more playfull. The EML is alost a side by side two seater. The Muturist is a single seater. Moturist is a Dutch sidecar fro the seventies and eighties. Technical design was done by Guzzi and sidecar guru Ed Pols from Amsterdam. The form of the tub was designed by former GP racer Jos Schurgers. The same guy who drew the lines for the Van Veen OCR1000. A fellow Dutchman made an extensive website about Ed Pols and the Moturist. http://www.moturist.nl/
I've bought the Moturist P1 in a very sorry state, but salvageable, for a very good price. The obsolete lights are there and the bucket seat is there and not to bad. The tub was build in 1981 and the glasfiber is a bit cracked here and there. The worst missing part is the windscreen, but it is a single curved screen, noting I can't make myself.
There is a fender with it, it is a little cracked and punctured, it needs some fibreglass.
Here I was viewing the position of the mounting points with a 34cm wheel lead. I could not resist to put the tub up for a second. You might recognize the bike. I bought it from fellow forum member Wheeldigger for a good price as a non runner. https://www.k100-forum.com/t10988-probs-with-k75
I will keep you posted, but bear in mind that I'm not in a hurry, next spring is a nice target.
