Jesse James built one like that years ago. I got to see it in his shop. Cool bike, not practical in the least bit. I'm out Woods. On the morrow.

Hey OG.

Unreal Greg -
The heat and lateral torque must be unreal. A Yuge battery too.
Something like a high maintenance Wimmens ?

Haha - I'm out

It would give the women a run for their money on the high maintenance aspect.

I'm out as well.

Halito again Doc..... looks like we're the only ones again today. That radial engine is an old Pratt and Whitney Wasp. They were the go to back in WW2. In fact with the early development of the jet engine, the government asked/told Pratt not to get involved with the jet engines and continue on the radials. But this was during the war efforts. Therefore they were "late" getting into the jet program. I'm happy they perservered and stayed around.....at least long enough for me to retire outta there!!
Y'all be careful.... lurker out....
