Re: V8Chopper - Bullet Fast

Aviation Toys have been the most intense fun. Inverted pass at 20 ft and 240 plus is a real adrenaline rush. Just gave up the airshow stuff this year, still fly a King Air 300 for some folks and have a twin Commanchee to tote me and the wife around.

Playing with the camera - V8 Trike

I couldn't stop riding it long enough to take pictures so Gerry's wife was kind enough to give me some pictures of when it was delivered to their house.

I can't say enough good things abount the instantaneous power and traction this thing has. Almost :twisted: scary fast!

Re: V8Chopper - Bullet Fast

The Trike does have a rear suspension, coil over shock. The ride is very good and would be suitable for cross country travel even though it is geared a little low (rpm is high at cruise.) The Trike has a smoother and more stable ride than my 502 did with the extended front end. The trike handles and...

V8Chopper - Bullet Fast

Well, I figured it was broken in enough, 300 miles. I went to bike nite at a local hole in the wall for show and tell. They all pissed on my leg and told me how good looking it was but i already knew that :o ! On the way home after I turned off and left Rick, I decided to find a straight stretch and...

Re: V8Chopper Trike is Here!

The V8Chopper trike is slimmer than a Boss Hoss trike and is 200 + lbs lighter so the handling is different. I don't know enough yet to comment about charging the corners. This one has a Detroit Locker rear end and is a little different from the normal limited slip posi-traction chunk. So far I real...

V8Chopper Trike is Here!

Got the Trike at 5:00 today :D . The paint was a terrific suprise, Stan and Mike Willey came up with the incredible scheme, more better pictures to follow. This is a really bad boy, lots of attitude and a real struggle to find traction even using a light hand as it is not broken in. I don't have muc...

Talked to Stan today and he indicated the paint would be ready Sunday. He has not given me a clue about the paint . I just gave him the basic colors and let him and Wi...

Re: Els Road Trip to V8Choppers

Hi Els and everybody else, i too made the trip to Miami, OK and found it to be an interesting place. The country begins to look like the Ozarks in that part of OK. Stan gave me the nickle tour and I came away as impressed as you did. Small number of people with a lot of talent. I am getting the 520 ...

V8Chopper

I was in Oklahoma last week so I went by to talk to Stan about the new trike. First time I met him - Great guy who made me comfortable with the whole process of picking stuff. Settled on the option list, I took most all of it! Went to the painters with Stan and discussed what I didn't like and then ...
