Here's another I stumbled across, and without searching for these. This one is a cleaner execution than the first one.

Dusthawk · « **Reply #4 on:** May 25, 2006, 08:29:21 AM »

Does anyone here have a couple rolls of papertowels they can hook me up with? I am up to my ankles in drool here

That is so abso-freakin'-lutely cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really like seeing some of the custom #$%* people come up with and WOW does this one spin my prop!

Does anyone have picks of the first one or have the link to the first post referenced above? I missed that one but am Totally impressed with this one.

Next up is to get this bad boy 'twixt the frame rails. 7755 cubic inches and slightly over 5,000 hp.

I don't know about you, but that lycoming just screams trike to me

holy riding gyroscope batman.

i think i'll pass.

SuperVel · « **Reply #9 on:** May 25, 2006, 04:19:57 PM »

Dusthawk you have found the missing parameter. A trike with that power. You would probably need cannards on the thing to keep it on the ground during acceleration.

What a thought..

I think that would be one of those"Grab Hold And Hang On" trips, huh?
And can you imagine an all into 1 (or 2) exhaust setup? I remember (years ago) seeing a
dragster with an Allison V-12 that had 12 short exhaust pipes. Try that on this! Better
make sure that you have nothing resembling wings or we could be airborn. Ha!Ha!
I think these suckers just about make the Dodge Viper powered "Tomahawk" look sane!

Later on, Bill

ElCheapo · « **Reply #12 on:** May 25, 2006, 09:55:33 PM »

Bill,

I cant imagine the stress of just making that darned exhaust

But fun to ride to a show

Leaves people with WTF

even if they dont know what it is.

You almost got it Bill, You'd need at least a four point harness, maybe even a six with that monstrosity. Yeah, there we go, It'll be named the CB7755 K5000 Trike.

More of the first radial one above. It turns out to be a Jesse James creation. While I never cared for his or Orange County's bikes, this one is sweet.

I have this comical thought of the bike turning upside down in the drive the first time you rap it open

I'm wondering how you "prop it over" to purge the oil that settles in the lower cylinders before you start it? Maybe there's a starter rope?

ElCheapo · « **Reply #23 on:** May 26, 2006, 06:53:53 AM »

I don't like Ness bikes......... They mostly seem like out of control spending fit..

Interesting, but still a spending fit.

Didn't some early aircraft rotary engines have the cylinders rotate around the shaft? I'd like to see a bike built with one of those, Just imagine that rotating mass buzzing around between your legs.
