Ran across this and was wondering if anyone has picked up one these yet? http://www.bonnevilleperformance.com/street_tracker.htmBonney 1200 Street Tracker looks interesting at 104 HP (at the rear wheel) BUT for the price of three (3) America's???? 
I'm speeding because I have to get there before I forget where I was going.

Dunno, some stuff I like about it, and others like the tank, seat, rear fender setup do absolutely NOTHING for me and definitely not for $26K....

104 rear wheel HP 91 ft. lbs. torque @ 4700 rpm on a 351 lb bike sounds like bliss to me. I like it... I like the specs and the look of the machine. 
Live to love, love to live.

I agree with you,
It seems well done.As it should be for that sort of money,but it's not my style.The power would be nice though.

ahh, I don't understand the street tacker thing I guess. You could get two of these 170HP toys for the price of that one.

Like Keith said, those specs are killer on a 351 pound bike. I don't know how that thing could keep the front wheel down or keep traction with that power and torque to weight ratio. The only thing I don't really like is the handle bars. BTW...what's going on next to the seat? What is that?

TPUSA does it (as does Bonnevileperformance) but Ive seen the TPUSA bikes. Were not talking the salt flat bikes either, real street able bikes.

I would love to get the 1200 cc kit in mine.
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.
