Maybe this will start the ball rolling.

E.C.E. Baragwanath built an outfit which was to make motorcycling history. He took the most powerful racing engine marketed for motorcycle use and supercharged it! It was as fast, if not faster than, the majority of contemporary solos, and as to be expected, capable of lapping the banked circuit at considerably over 100mph.
When he retired in the early thirties the outfit was sold to Noel Pope, who used it in both solo and chair form, then he installed a later engine and finally set the Brooklands lap record at 106mph sidecar and 124mph solo.

After the war Noel used the old Brough in an unsuccessful attempt on the World Record at Bonneville. Finally C.E. 'Titch' Allen bought the remnants and set about rebuilding the model in its original vintage trim. The machine is based on a Brough Superior 'Pendine' model. Castle forks are used at the front. These, based on a Harley-Davidson design, employ short leading bottom link. Both wheels have 21inch diametre rims. The brakes are 7inch front and 8inch rear.

The engine is an 8/50 type J.A.P which, in unblown form, developed about 50bhp. Bevel gears drive a 50 degree twin-cylinder magneto mounted on a platform on the timing chest, and outside this is carried the double Pilgrim pump which operates a total loss oil system. Two heavy-gauge alloy plates carry the Powerplus supercharger just forward of the down-tube. The three-speed, super-heavyweight Sturmey archer gearbox, has an optional positive stop footchange mechanism, although Barry retained hand change for Brooklands events.

The bare essentials - that sums up the sidecar. It has a 'proper' body, with a wooden floor and a one-piece alloy shell streamlind to cheat the wind and copied from one of the floats of the Schneider Trophy winning seaplane of 1929. The whole outfit has a fiercely impressive air of power. It is an apt memorial to one of the greatest figures in the golden age of tuner-rider.
