BEDELLCUSTOM Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) I'm going to get some pics and video at the track this summer, it's quite a sight to see a big cruiser with footboards and those big old fenders standing up on the rear wheel. My buddy John Guida who you guys might know since he shoots some of the big matches and who has a Harley softail came up to the track with me and witnessed the insanity first hand. Then again, just going over the speed limit on his Harley is a lot to ask since he rides slower than an old woman and we're always waiting for him to catch up. Another friend of who has a Sabretooth,which is a big custom with a 302 ford small block in it, he's in the process of building a custom bike using a Sabretooth chassis with a 360mm rear tire and a twin turbo charged dual overhead cam ford V-8, the same engine that's in the Lincoln but with his twin turbo setup, here's a few pics of the Sabretooth and the turbo project.

HSMITH Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Brian, the best road bike Harley has ever offered is already in your garage. Unless getting out of riding I wouldn't sell it. It is the only H-D I would consider if I wanted more than a beer and a burger bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, Matt....now that the weather has been nice, how is it? I used to have an FZ1...I loved it and plan to get another one someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Cheely Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) It's a great all around bike. Switch a few parts, and it's setup for touring or sport. I can ride it for hours and not get tired like guys on sportbikes. It's especially fun to totally drop them in the twistys too I plan on doing a track day in the next month or two.

LJE Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) Still under construction. 500 cid ElDorado. Has wheelie bars and has been run on the performance dyno. Belongs to a friend of mine. Forgot to mention, this guy is 6'4" and weights 700 lbs. Edited May 23, 2009 by LJE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Lord Gomer Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Matt, I also had Givi. even ran it at the dragstrip with it (cost me 3 tenths). Best was 10.96. George, I'm to scared to go fast in a situation that requires skill. LJE, with the motor there, it looks like it would wheelie if you *look* at the throttle.

Matt Cheely Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) I stopped by Dan Bedell's shop today, and what do I find? Him working on guns? No, he decided to do wheelies on his 800lb VTX 1800 w/ a NOS bottle on it... Edited July 6, 2009 by Matt Cheely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue edge Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I thought he was a bottle baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEDELLCUSTOM Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) The nitrous is for the driver not the motorcycle. I was working on guns and the wheelies were only during my lunch break. I'm not sure how much longer my front forks will take the beating, 800 pound bikes aren't made for that but it sure is fun!
