i built one of them a couple of years ago. the sidewinder it went ok but i didnt have enough camber on the front wheels and would roll pretty easy. i have the plans for it and the piranha which i might make one day. but prefer the 4by for now. i crushed my hand in one of the roll overs.

If I was 2 build one it would be the piranha :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger:

From memory a few years back I remember looking at a 4 wheel motorbike, don't know what the brand was but it had a diesel engine ;) ;)
I reckon that would be interesdting running a diesel engine in a buggy :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :finger: :finger: :finger:

i have seen one of those sidewinders built with a R1 1100cc motor hanging of the side of it.... man it was crazy could hardly keep the front wheels on the ground. another good motor could be the cr500 2 stroke motor out the older trail bikes.
