I think it's very cool but hey I guess I would!! :cheer: I like that he has it mounted sideways ... I guess having it installed like that would mitigate the torque from the weight of the crank. I say slap a big bore supercharger or a turbo on there and then you'd be talking ...

It looks supercharged. The handle bars are way to thin to dampen the road vibration - and the heat off that motor could cook a hoagie. :unsure:

It is SC but I'm talking a twin screw PD type charger ... Having eight indivdual single carbs is cool but imagine the nightmare to tune/sync. I still give the guy credit for building and riding it ... you won't find two of these parked together and he'll never have a problem finding his bike in a "sea of bikes" ... it's unique and his and that is important!!

PS Maybe the handlebars are full of lead? The heat from the engine would probably be pretty welcomed this time of year and he doesn't have to be teathered to the battery for heated gear!! :lol: :lol:
