While Marv has not had the bike to the track, he did have a chance to try his original small block motor out on the quarter mile dyno at the Daytona Bike Week. The bike posted a new quarter mile dyno world record, running a 6.407 @ 210.8 mph!

Gee..this was the same dyno that said I went 8s@160 on motor

wow! if it can go 210 in the quarter, with a lil' gearing tweak it should be able to hit an EASY 300 at maxton. **wink wink**

KEYWORD (DYNO) The bike posted a new quarter mile dyno world record.

Thats not moving any weight...... You can bolt and motor to a frame and a rear wheel and tie it to a dyno and wooo hooo................ Make it hook up and get traction thats part of real world racing... Also weight transfer and and aerodynamics would become a factor in the real world..... Lot of factors to keep it for running that in the real world...

Great job of show!!!!! Like they say if it don't go chrome it... Guess that explains Harley Davidsons.....

And I'm not saying the Boss couldn't be a runner with mods... Video shows definite traction problems,,,, But if you Mod one gotta mod the other... What can a 12 do with Mods....... Say longer swingarm...

well, if a boss hoss is a better bike than a 12 according to them, then a 50's era russian tank is prolly an even BETTER bike, given it has two "wheels" & would prolly pull about a 2 second quarter on a dyno.
