Sidecar outfit driven by Dave Molyneux at the 2007 TT
Date made: 2007
Maker: Molyneux, Dave
Description: This machine was built by Dave Molyneux and driven by him in the 2007 Centenary Tourist Trophy (TT) races. The machine won both sidecar races that year.
The outfit is powered by a 600cc Honda engine, and the bodywork carries the logos of HM Plant Honda, Poker Stars, and other minor sponsors. It carries Molyneux's number 1, and bears the stone chips and champagne splashes from its last race.
Dave Molyneux is the most successful Manx TT competitor and the most successful sidecar competitor. The double victory aboard this machine was particularly satisfying for him, marking as it did his return following a serious crash in 2006.
