Template:Infobox Former Grand Prix motorcycle rider Template:Infobox TT rider Helmut Fath (born 24 May 1929 in Ursenbach, died 19 June 1993 in Heidelberg), was a German sidecar racer and engineer. He won the Sidecar World Championship in 1960 and 1968.[1] His early racing was on BMW R50 sidecars with a chassis of his own design, but after a bad accident in 1961 took time off only to return with his own design URS four cylinder machine and win the title in 1968.[2] The URS engine was also used in solo competition as well as powering Horst Owesle/Peter Rutherford to the 1971 World Sidecar Championship.[3]
