Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Obviously, many of these videos can be found on various video sites but I wanted to start a collection here for easy access while perusing the board:

Here is a You Tube video from 2013 La Crosse rally:

Great video Ron, loved the smoke show!!

Ron - I just love the way you get sideways !!

Here is a short clip of a burnout I did yesterday. They had a bike show and rodeo in Marshalltown Iowa and I was asked to do a burnout to finish the show. When I heard it was on main street and the cops would just stand around and watch I couldn't resist.

Sweet

Ron, That was impressive.

Thanks Ricky! It was a long journey to get the Pro Charger
all set up correctly on the new trike but it was all worth it.

I'm gonna try to get the new trike to the dragstrip before
the end of the season as I think it will be quite a bit faster than my Purple trike.

Ron glad to hear the trike is finally dialed in!!that was quite a smoke show!!! Loved it! Thanks!!

That made me bust out laughing...GREAT burnout Ron!!!!

Does anyone know the out come of these races? That is one sick nitrous setup Also, in the second video it looks like Marv?

To me it looked like the Bosses were beat off the line, and then made it up on the top end.

Randy Burky and Elvis tearing it up!

Ron, who were you running against?



Shane here?




Also, I'm fucking tired of you beating everyone, I need to line up and try (after installing Tom's new trans)

That was Stan riding Harold Blockers trike in the first video.

The second was Shane and I playing around. He really enjoyed turning around in front of me and making me
eat his smoke for a change.

As for you wanting to race ... Have you already been
in the holiday cheer? The Blower trike should be hard to beat with regular tires. But I am always ready.

Ron, no holiday cheer it's not 5 yet but after some serious thought, I have decided to rethink (thunk?) my position.

In order to save you from the embarrassment of being beat on the blower trike by the almighty 606 which, rumor has it, was HIGHLY under rated, (for insurance reasons of course) and the fact that the present trans has minimal loss to the rear wheel providing massive power transfer.

What I propose: I will use Sue's trike against your purple one and we will go mano o mano. 434ci vs 450ci, big nitrous shot vs little nitrous shot, electric shift vs manual.

What you say??

I'd hate to see KaBoom eat up a fifth transmission! But that would be one wild ride at the track when you finally do!

Hey Bill, That sounds good if we can just get them side by side sometime next year. I'm not sure if we will make it to Daytona and even if we do I will only have the blower trike with me.

Maybe you and Susan can make it to La Crosse in 2014 and we could play there. It is a fantastic rally that you would really enjoy.

Also what makes you think Susan doesn't want to race me herself?

Why not race all the bikes and trikes. I have no problem losing to Perv it is no big deal, I will do it again

Shane

It's all good fun. I love busting balls and bench racing. Would enjoy racing anyone for the hell of it. I tend to get complacent in the little town where I live. On occasion, some Camaros, vettes, and the unknowing Harley will want to do a stop light to stop light run or quick roll on but that's about it. No sportbikes so far. During bike week, I rarely get a chance due to heavy traffic and police presence. Looking forward to racing one day at Daytona, Lacrosse or one of the other events.

Does anyone know who makes the swingarm that is on this bike?

You don't see too many women riding a 2 wheel V8...

Bill,

the swingarm is made by Boss Hoss Cologne. Very sturdy, superior quality and delivers fantastic riding stability. Come to the european meeting and you will see tons of those.

Mark,
the one in the video is a slightly different design, ie; there are three cutouts on the sides and the backside of the holes are sealed. Do you know if that is the newer or older design? Also, according to my calculations, about $ 3,700 usd?

I looked at the video again. And yes, the design is slightly different as the rider seems to have chosen that those cutoffs are not put through the legs of the swingarm.

Not a question of newer or older design - just an option. Definitely from BH Cologne (also frontfork, vented rear brake, HID light)

On the topic of price, I recall an even higher price tag for the swingarm. Give Andy a call , he is a very approachable nice guy. On a 606 it is a must have (putting some pressure on you )

I am also considering that swingarm as it not only looks good to me but also serves a purpose. There is only one other swingarm available - which was designed by BH Denmark (3rd pic) which I also quite like.

Real bummer - you cant have it all - as any upgrades to BH dont come cheap. LOL
