those bikes RULE. The show "Trucks" showed them and drove one on a show a few months ago

Yup. Although that's the 136 ci "60 horsepower" flatty. The rest of those also went into sprint cars.

I think that bike looks great. It would sound better (and be a lot more fun) if it had more than one gear.

Very cool! Alot of thought went into creating those bikes!

I love those bikes. Unlike the bikes with the SBCs those actually look like the engine fits. I always thought the SBC bikes were rediculous, besides they looked like they'd be a bitch to ride anyway.
