I'm not really into the Harley/Chopper style bikes but... This is cool. I'd like one of those.

I'd love to hear it run.

Screw the bike, I'd like that beautiful motor on my Savannah! Actually that is one of the nicest jobs of integrating a non-motorcycle engine into a bike I've ever seen.

I saw this picture some time ago. I wonder how good it cools and how to start it with no prop to pull on.

Minor details, very cool!

IT was at Oshkosh a couple of years ago at the Rotec display area. I believe it was built by a custom bike builder from southern Florida. I looked at it very close and the guy did a superb job. Beautiful bike!!!

How come I've never found a picture of the other side of that bike. You know, the exhaust side! Bet you need asbestos pants to ride the thing. :shock:

Now, can I get kick starter for my plane? :?
