http://www.procharger.com/harley_dynos.shtml I've seen this unit in person. No, never heard it run on a bike parked at a show. It sure looked well built and the fit looked all there in function. If you have the know how, most anything can fit to work.

Smackhouse talk. Obama is a leftist socialist. Need we say more?!?!? Bush wasnt much better. Obama is a sweettalkin jive flinger. What he says and does are 2 scary, scary different things!
What people EARN and DESERVE are two separate things. taking what I EARN and giving it away to those in which the government feel DESERVE it, is not OK with me. Smaller governement, less taxes, accountability, and honesty are what we need now.

Two Harleys and three Indians here. Have owned two Z-1s, one with an 1100 big bore kit. I wouldn't mind owning another Harley. Rumor is that they are working on a V-4 around 2000cc. If it's a gigantic tourer they can keep it. If it is sporty and will beat the 14 I'm in line for it. I wouldn't give a rat's ass if they made it in Mexico. We have a black president so we know pigs can fly,........ now, can Harley? They used to be the power motorcycle in their day, more than a half century ago.

"If it is sporty and will beat the 14 I'm in line for it."
Not another VMax thread... Harley isnt going to be dethroning the 14 with a street legal bike anytime soon. That isnt the point, though: They just have to make a competitive, powerful cruiser or naked sport bike that can run in the low 10's in the 1/4 mile.

Never considered a VMax sporty, not at that weight, don't know what class it is. Main street cruiser, coffee shop decor. Wouldn't turn one down but is low on the need list.
