Here is something a little different

[37 Cab]

Kinda odd looking but someone is pretty talented.

 

[OLD REK]

Another variation of the "Honest Charlie" Flathead motorcycle, huh?? Cool tho....

 

[flatford8]

I saw one at the AMCA event in Rhinebeck,NY. a couple years ago with a V8-60 in it. Looked like a nice job of it. The guy was happy to talk price (30k) but when I started to look it over, he took off.
I guess he didn't want anybody seeing how it was built.....MARK

 

[30-9]

Hope he has the right thermostats in it

Unless you've go a 24" inseam and 48" sleeves, that thing's gotta' be a ***** to drive!

 

[corvette8n]

Imagine kicking that over

 

[DD931]

Wouldn't your trouser leg get sorta hot?

 

[Mike51Merc]

Likes: wheel and suspension treatment
Dislikes: Tank, intake snorkel periscope treatment, rider stance

 

[V12Bill]

Have seen Harleys with Lincoln V 12 engines. Must be a hand full at a stop sign.

 

[rowens55]

Likes, all of it. Dislikes, it's not mine.

I agree.. The wheels and suspension are sweet. I see a Harley transmission. Makes me wonder how they did that.
A little off subject for the barn but I have a history with V8 motorcycles. Now retired to a V8 trike. This is my last one..

37 Cab, You sir, are my new hero! Let me ask; "Do you have to buy your pants two sizes larger to make room for your balls?"

 

[39topless]

Now, if that had a side car............

 

[willowbilly3]

I saw one in a magazine 40 years or so ago, with a flatty and no transmission. They used a Corvair torque converter and some kind of angle drive.

Ha ha.. No but I can`t seem to find a hat small enough to fit with my little tiny brain.

THIS.......is a V8 motorcycle! "The Michigan Madman", E. J. Potter. DD

 

[37 Cab]

Yep.. He would have the rear wheel up on a stand and when the light would turn green They kicked it off the stand with the engine wound and tire spinning!! You can see the stand still on the bike in the bottom pic.

I agree this is off subject here, but I gotta know. Are those nitrous bottles on them? So a V8 on motorcycle wasn't enough?...... Mark

 

[37 Cab]

Nope.. 600 hp 427 small block with a 100 shot. There really ARE worse hobbies than our beloved old fords. I was running very low 9s at 150-160 in the 1/4. Something to be said about that when your feet are out in front.. Makes the big end interesting to say the least. Something to be said about a 300 ft burnout at 70 too.. BUT.. comes a time in life when ya just gotta slow it down a little. Or at least add one more tire. This one is a 434 with a 100 shot.




No thermostat..

That is my OTHER thing...
