Long Beach Grand Prix: The Rig
Most of the other sidecars are front-exit: the passenger crouches on a little platform in front of the side wheel, with a framework and cowling in front of him. Matt's machine is a rear-exit: the platform is behind the side wheel, so when the bike brakes heavily Matt can press himself against the fender and let it absorb the decelleration, rather than Matt having to crouch in front of the wheel and cling to the framework.
