yay i'm not the only fat kid here anymore!

that silliness over with, what is the acceleration like? not talking about out accelerating porsches but as far as can it safely accelerate with traffic? I've been fascinated by diesel motorcycles since i saw a demo of the diesel bike the marinescorp were or possibly have evaulated. i'd ride one of it could safely keep up with traffic. hmmmmmmmmmm maybe that rusty old cx500 out there might have a use afterall  :D

The Motor is a 58ci (954cc) Ruggerini (model RD 211) made in Italy by Lombardini.
Examples here: http://www.peter-wade.de/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=37&Itemid=67

I'm also doing a Diesel Trumph Tiger for a friend as seen in the top photos.

whats scary is with some mild revisions to the body work you could make that triumph look stock.
'84 Chevy C10
'73 MGB Roadster
'69 Ford F250

Currently a rider without a bike
