Thread at advrider.com: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=136413 Most of the bikes are real classics, with a couple of customs thrown in. I'm not much on choppers lately, but this one is pretty dang cool:  | ||

wow, impractical, probably scary to ride, but very cool! | ||

Can you imagine the "torque effect" when you hit the gas? Talk about a crazy ride. You would have to be very careful. | ||

That's fantastic. I especially like the way the aircraft theme is in evidence everywhere else. Rocket | ||

I like Ewan, as celeb's go, but frig me does he get the best places. Some amazing bikes (all) at that show. Thanks for the link Hugh. Not noticed you posting recently. Rocket | ||

Rocket, Glad you enjoyed the link. So cool to see something other than standard chopper fare. I wonder what the type of engine it is exactly? As cool as it looks, I can't imagine it'd run very well; I can't see any cooling fins on the heads or cylinders. I'd always thought that it would be cool to do the inverse of this; build a V-twin using 2 cylinder assemblies from a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 or similar. |
