xsjohn i don't think you could get that fast that sprocket must be 175 to 200 teeth. not fast but quick.

There maybe some hidden ingeniousness in this thing......kept staring at the frame tube that rises in front of the engine where he connected the front end.......could that actually be his front suspension as it boggels back and forth over the bumps....?...now I would put a tennis ball in there as a dampner... Surprised

Say, that's as cool as any of the choppers/bratstyle/non-performance bikes I see! My buddy Dave says it best, when hassled by the chopper crowd, for riding his sportbike. "At least I look like I am riding an iron horse, instead of leaning back in the stirrups, waiting for a pap smear" Smile All in good fun, Kyle

I dunno, John. But I would not let Barney Frank ride on the back of my bike. Leaned over, vulnerable, and a weapon of ass destruction behind me. Not my cup of tea!
