I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe

amazing craftsmanship


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Yeah Chad, that's pretty cool I suppose, BUT did you happen to catch those pictures I posted in the Custom Corner forum of that foot peg and control bracket I built last week? Now THAT'S real craftsmanship!!!


(...HA, couldn't resist that one...actually of course, I'm not even close to being in the same league as the guy in this video...VERY cool find here, ol' buddy!)



Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Incredible

Dare I be the first to compare the power output to that of a Harley?

Nah! I'll leave that to someone else

That is awesome. I don't know how long it would last running because I didn't notice if he used bearings for the crank and cams. But then again how many lawn mowers out there are metal to metal?

The cams in our bikes are made without renewable bearings They just run in the head and once that is worn out it's time for a new head.
