Sensible motorcycle chariot racing

Ignore the silly ideas posted on here. This one is at least vaguely sensible.

In real chariot racing, the horses are attached to the yoke of the chariot through straps and attachments so that they are actually quite well attached. The reins run back, sometimes through guide-loops, to where the driver stands, giving her or him a lot of control over the horses and vehicle.

So in Sensible motorcycle chariot racing, the two motorcycles are fitted to a specially shaped yoke which rests on the two padded leather saddles of the motorcycles. There are straps and buckles which attach the yoke firmly but flexibly to the saddles, allowing just enough freedom of movement for banking and steering.

Trying to control a motorcycle using reins would be a bit silly. So My suggestion here is that the driver is given a set of handlebars. Perhaps instead of being fixed they could be mounted on a free-pivoting arm attached to the chariot pole. But at least there would be the ability to mount the usual throttle and brakes controls on these handlebars.

The driver would also have a foot plate mounted on the chariot floor which he could use for gear change etc. This could be in the form of a bar running the width of the chariot. The idea is that he can shift from one side to the other to balance the chariot as usual, whilst still having a sensible amount of ergonomic control of the motorcycles.

I suggest that for maximum effectiveness, the motorcycle controls are manipulated by electrical actuators, which are controlled through a kind of fly-by-wire system from the chariot handlebars and foot controls. There would also be an emergency handbrake mounted in the chariot just in case of control failure.

I see no reason why such a rig should not be street-legal and used for the weekly shopping trip. Perhaps the chariot should have hardpoint mounts for strapping your shopping bags on to, to save you spilling tins of beans out the back on tight corners.
