There was an article I read years ago about a company somewhere in the UK that did custom builds on various bikes. The article I mention focused on a build of a Yamaha V-Max. The company built the engine to a 1600 CC monster producing over 220 Horses at the wheel. It was converted to chain drive, completely rebuilt from the frame to suspension - everything. I recall one part of the article that read something like this: "When we tested the Max, there was a factory Ducati superbike out there in a test run. The Max caught it, then blew by it like it was going backwards."

THAT is the bike I want to review. :D :shock: 8)

Why not go to the big city for a demo ride? I rode the XB9 Firebolt that way, great fun :mrgreen:
Good idea. Some time this summer when my shifts and all the stars and planets align......

So send my your personal information for me to supply to them for liability, criminal and otherwise, purposes.... as soon as you get a chance. No hurry, still too much winter outside for me.
No Witnesses.... :shifty:
