There is probably $100k or more in that bike + the hired gun, 8yr old sized jockey LOL! 1 Quote

zedhead Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 And it's had quite a bit of further development since that video. It'snow running fuel injection, and if I remember correctly there have also been a few chassis alterations and further engine changes. It's a monster! Quote
Rustynail Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 200 MPH in 6.7 seconds! he certainly doesn't hang around Quote
Duckndive Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 The Motor must be near 100k on its own The Basic Cylinder Head is $5000.....the one on Brads is more like $20,000 alone..... It is one quick machine and the jockey must be worth 0.5 on the ticket Quote

Boy - pay attention in the back................... it has EFI in the video ! Its a ProStock motor if it was legal - nearer a ProMod, but button start is a nice touch Quote

Yes I am aware - i'm guessing the EFI is allowing a well retarded timing for cranking cos it spins over well quick for a (probably) highish comp 1640cc motor. 1 Quote
arnout Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 Very nice. But "street bike"? Looking at the solid cylinder block and absence of any coolers I reckon it would overheat rather rapidly out on the road.. Quote

Given its geared for the 1/4th and goes 4.3 to the 1/8th it would give the pro mod boys a run for there money geared for the 1/8th ...a 3.9 could be in range ...

GS2456 Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Hi Guys, I just saw these posts about the bike. I just want to clean up a few things, by rules we have to run a stock cradle with a VIN number. The cradle had all of the stock gussets removed and replaced with moly plate. The swing arm pivot rea has been cut out and replaced with moly and a larger Busa style pivot shaft. The suspension is Busa style with a few tweeks that we feel works better for us. The motor is basically a Pro Mod motor. From the head gasket down it is the same as most Pro Mod motors. Newer stock cases VH crank, Robinson full auto trans, MTC clutch, VH billet block with JE pistons. Displacement is 1655cc rules state a max of 1660cc. the Monster head isnt as expensive as you would think when you take into account that it is all but bullet proof. I was spending crazy money trying to keep a stock casing head together. with the Monster it has been freshen it up in the winter and run it all season with no issues. All of the bikes running at this level have very few factory parts remaining not just us. Pro Street isnt a cheap class no matter what sytle bike you decide to run 6 Quote
Arttu Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 Hi, thanks for chiming in! Could you comment how the full auto transmission have been working for you? I have been wondering how much trouble it would cause on this kind street tire no wheelie bar bikes. I have understood that the auto gears like to break stuff if you shut off the throttle or otherwise cut power on them. And at least on tracks here in Europe loosing the traction on lower gears is pretty common and also wheelies are happening all the time. So I would imagine that a full auto trans would require some repairs quite often. Quote
