Whilst I have given up on quick streetbikes due to the backward thinking and money grabbing of Drag racing as a whole with regards to them, it is good to see an aspirated big bore showing some nice figures like that.
Nice work Leonard and it will be a nice thing Bruce.
What I would like to say is not trying to deflect or take away from your bike at all Bruce, merely a little point for a few people that I know will read this here.
My old EFE A/SB 1498cc would of made around the 230/235hp figure and maybe a little less FTLB figure. Was never dynoed but would of been about there. Engine bombed to the shithouse as far as the rules would allow, living on the edge at 17.5:1 comp ratio trying to lift the head off it at 12 000 RPM etc. A shit load more spent on it than what has been spent here to even come close to those figures, and a constant maintanence program to try and keep it together. C14+ race fuel or it would of killed itself before it even finished doing the burnout. Lots of development to say the least, and some of that was done when I took over the bike already.
So to those that cried and sooked all the time and had a big attitude towards my bike and what it acheived, and to the person that has posted here that suggested to me old school bikes should be banned from G2 streetbikes as they will never be able to be beaten when the bike set the national record, may just like to study this thread and see the potential that the new school bikes have if your are willing and serious about wanting to do it.
Bruce can still road ride his around and pull into a servo, for around the same HP figures with more potential. Try riding my old EFE around the streets even at standard height. Can't be done!!
Slam Bruces bike and "ride it" and it would take the national record. You see thats what happens when you want to make a commitment and want something bad enough, instead of sooking about someone else and the bike they ride because you think they can never be beaten, rules etc.
Have fun with it Bruce.
