The Edmonds BSA - a front wheel drive outfit
Mick Wortley and Dave Kettle take the front-wheel drive Edmonds BSA round Ballacraine in practice for the 1976 500 Sidecar TT. As can be seen from the inset shot, the A50 BSA was skewed in the frame to give a straight drive chain line - the drive appears to be via a Hillman Imp drive shaft and doughnut

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motorcycle racing in 1976. Mick Wortley and Dave Kettle fearlessly tackle the Ballacraine circuit during a practice session for the 500 Sidecar TT. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the unique front-wheel drive Edmonds BSA outfit they are riding. A closer look at the inset shot reveals an intriguing modification - the A50 BSA is cleverly skewed within its frame, ensuring a straight drive chain line. What catches our attention even more is that this extraordinary setup seems to utilize a Hillman Imp drive shaft and doughnut for power transmission. The determination etched on their faces speaks volumes about their passion for speed and competition. As they navigate through sharp bends with precision, it's evident that these skilled riders have dedicated countless hours perfecting their craft. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to an era when innovation was key in pushing boundaries within motorsports. It serves as a reminder of how far technology has come since then while honoring those who fearlessly embraced unconventional approaches to gain an edge on the track
