Re: two home made rover powerd v8 bikes
The first bike seems to have the easier to operate tranny and sounds pretty good. It also seems to handle better and more easily.
The second bike I would suspect was built to "wow the crowd" IMO it missed the mark because of the rideability issues.
To be clear, I applaud their engineering skills and fabrication abilities, I just prefer teh first bike over the second

I would swear that the purple one has a Boss Hoss frame or copied a Boss Hoss frame to a "T".....swingarm, crashguards, front end......
Cool bikes though

Re: two home made rover powerd v8 bikes
The purple one is the 430 that used to be the Tattoo Bike referred to above, Martin has seen it in the flesh. There is a video of it on youtube but I can't find it at the moment.
It was put up for sale in the UK in 2013 and it was the first BH I got really interested in but the guy didn't want to sell it to me as I didn't like the paint.
