Re: Winter time

Tom, For whatever reason, the pics of your chopper look a whole load better here than the "other" site. Please don't let my tongue lashing of your friend get in the way of our friendship. As a matter of fact, I'll be seeing him in January and we can certainly break bread. I said what I fel...

I'm Back...

Hey Gents...and any Ladies out there, I self inflicted my not posting on the "other" board today. It appears one of the moderators and I just don't see eye to eye and I'm a bit upside down with the self righteous BS. Censoring, moving posts and threads, and arbitrary treatment of some vers...

Re: Sabertooth 4 speed?

Re: Sabertooth 4 speed?

WM, I laughed my nads off when I read the "Slobbertooth" tag. I know the author and I think it was said in jest for the most part with elements of truth. Afterall, talk is cheap. There's been a seesaw of things with Sabertooth from the beginning that some here on these boards were either a...

Re: Aldo

WM, Not trying to stir the shit but your analogy doesn't fit. Comparing your homeowners insurance to product liability is like comparing a kids scooter to 747. Yeah, they both have wheels and can transport someone but that's where the comparison stops. It perhaps isn't even that close as one is a ho...

Re: What's the most BHP V8 bike?

There's a company in the UK called Big CC Racing who are claiming to have the most powerful petrol bike in the world with 721 BHP! I don't think this is correct, anyone know of more powerful petrol bikes? Wasn't there one with over 1000 BHP running a Donovan block? Friend Charlie Herwick (Crazy Cha...

Without nitrous, my 502 BH '57 Chevy never broke 7 seconds. That was with some fancy MSD ignition parts and a Demon carb. Had to spray it with...

That is simply cool as can be! 8-) I've had 2 Boss Hoss trikes. One was my wife's '63 'Vette small block, the other my '57 Chevy big block. The tire smoking capability even with the 502 modified was pathetic and embarrassing. The only way I finally got it to smoke worth a shit was with a 250 hp nitr...

Seems like the Boss Hoss transmission dilemma transcends time. We were talking this shit back in the old Yahoo days seven plus years ago. The tranny was then and is now not up to the job. The factory back then made excuses and didn't do what I would consider the right thing in making sure their cust...
