I swear, I found it listed that way. Do you think if we all went to "incorrect" rear heads and faced the carbs to the front there would be a gain in HP? MikeV

"Don't do drugs" is what it should say, this kind of stuff happens.

I find it, strangely, fascinating. A lot of effort to build something complicated. And the bidding is "healthy". MikeV

About 6 months straight on crystal meth is my guess. And I imagine they'd still have to be pretty wound up to have the energy to get it up on that center stand. Couldn't find it on ebay, what's the bidding to?

After all the meth I think they were trying to say it could race against a Ducati.

Before the weekend it got up to $8,800 with more than a few bidders. Actually, the work on it was pretty good. I quit watching when the price got too high for me --- you can figure out what part of that is a joke. MikeV

I agree, it is strangely fascinating, and I wish I had half the skills required to pull a project like that off. There is a whole lot of work and thought sitting there, but......

The complaint riders had about Guzzis was hitting the carbs with their legs, I guess asbestos knee pucks are in order now!
