I have just been reading on another forum that Klaus Klaffenboch is apparently to enter this years TT. If this is true it is fabulous news for sidecar fans !

Sure is...can't wait...only 8 weeks...

Not at all surprised, Klaus told me at Mallory Park a couple of years ago that after the GP's he intended to do the TT before he retires, i hope the retirement is not imminent. Good luck Klaus i hope you do.

Brilliant news, maybe we should start a special KK fan Klub?..........no , hang on, might not look good......

So anyway, how many sidecar racers of note had surnames starting in K?

Wolfgang Kalauch is one I admire...any more?

But seriously, it will be great to see him (KK)tearing around? Great for the TT Too.

Wolfgang is my absolute hero. Wish I could have been as good a passenger as him. He made it an art form. (Often in the company of a character known as "Sideways Sid"....)

Here's a few sidecar drivers with surnames beginning with K, there's quite a few - Yoshi Kumagaya, Masato Kumano, Otto Kolle, Rudi Kurth, Gary Knight, Keiron Kavanagh, Reiner Koster, Pete Krukowski, Dave Kimberley, Andy Kinsella

Korr Blimey! This kan make you the klear winner so phar Phil old bean! Kan you Klaim any more?

Hi all fantastic news about Klaffenboch doing the TT , the donkey work was done by Adrian Earnshaw of the Hailwood Foundation who contacted Klaus , i see Adrain every saturday in our local the Manx Arms & he had all but given up on Klaffenboch , therefore it was a surprise to see him entered . i also know that Jorg Stienhausen has been contacted about riding , he said this year he was devoting all his energies into winning the world superside , however he expressed an interest in riding next year possibly . This could be a positive in the TT as against all the negatives we have been hit with recently , it will also be something for our German friends to support at the TT , it has been a conscern recently that the number of German visitors is dropping off , lets face it they have not really had anyone to support for a number of years , since the great Klaus Klien I think , they are also great supporters of the sidecar class .
