Default Brute Horsepower


This guy did my heads.

I'm not bragging for me, I'm bragging for him. Nicest, quietest guy you will ever meet but boydoes he know howto make Horsepower. I didn't know a Harley could rev up that high.

4 time winner Brute Horsepower, Datona bike week. Runs Woods Cams. And God onlyknows what other stuff. But this is on pump gas.

more like a lockup clutchthat needs adjusting...slippers work in reverse and let the clutch "slip" on the over run to stop the back wheel locking up as you go down the box.

I have no idea from this first startup. I figure its been broken in some maybe with an electric motor hookup. 9-10000 rpm right off the bat is a lot to ask. I'm have to ask when I see him.
Whatever needed adjusting, got adjusted by Datona.

no offense, but that wasn't so impressive...the bike looked stupidly uncomfortable, and took him too long to start. i may not know what im talking about, but if i needed to go through all those gyrations just to start my bike, i would just pass.

If I had 171 hp I would stand on my head to start it if thats what it took.

Remember this bike, engine, was purpose built for a narrow specific competition. Itdid its job. Doesn't matter how complicated to start.

That bike, itselt, has whatever engine the project calls for.

I doubt if it runs much on the street. Though if it is streetable I bet Wolf ran around some, on a nice Saturday nite.

I thought it was a first ride on it hence the teething troubles
