I don't know about that one, but have seen the double engine 750's before.

A guy around where I used to live built them as customs for people in the mid 70's. They looked stock except they had an extra engine, he did a beautiful job on them. I think they called him Fast Eddie and he loved to ride his dbl engine through Laidlaw Harley (he knew the people there) and tell them that the 16" Harley wheel was so at least one Harley part would know what it was like to go fast.

Did it actually run at El Mirage, or was it just there for a photo op?

Yeah, true story, Bill.  ???  But I stay optimistic.. Just picked up a set of NOS 18" Japauto JPX wheels out of the Netherlands, though. I guess I've been working on collecting the parts for the build for almost ten years and I keep looking for the balance of what I need. Too bad that I can't haunt the European swap meets.... {sigh}

And so it goes...
