Bill,

Is the B known as the Daytona?

I wonder Bill, do you ride out through hanging vines etc. when you leave that place?

Sounds like it should be fun away from the auto.

Bill

I see that the links on the primary chain are staggered/offset.

Is there a reason that you know of for setting them this way?

It's something that I've queried before just out of curiosity and there have been mixed views about this.

Bill....who is this "Sam Green"

Him and Al,separated @ birth! Rap,sing,race,he can do it all!! ::)Finland:Lock up your ladies....dogs,cats...Run!

Bill,
Looking good so far my friend. If you keep doing these dragbike projects i might get more incentive to work on my K model for a street ET bike. Will have to go with a mono shock set up so i can put a sticky, wide 17" tire on the back and a decent shock for chassis tuning.

Do you plan to use electronic ignition on the bike???

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #15 on:** August 23, 2011, 05:48:48 PM »

Oh yes.....MSD I think!

See ya'll Fri nite.Got to find something w/kickstarter..sounds like too much fun!
