One thrid of that river crossing looks more like floating around.

Those bikes look like Ural or smth similar, it's amazing the engines kept running in such deep water.

Amazing, I didn't think they would make it out of the middle current.

That's nuts - how is that even possible? There couldn't have been much (any?) air getting to the motor.

I think I would have kept riding until I found a bridge, or just turned tail...LOL.

The carb has to feed into the sidecar ? There is no way other than that .

You are correct, the sidecar functions as a dry box. Notice they have the sidecar top covered to keep the water out.
