Nice! Those speed triples sound bad ass with exhaust, honestly I don't think any other sport bike can compare.
As for the Beetle, that thing looks like a blast, what all is done to it? Welcome!
welcome, haven't looked at those bikes before. cool design.
a drag beetle would be cool
Kook!
Why the hell did you move to IC?
I like the bike. I think I read about the bug before on Dragsource.
Welcome Kook!
Ha, hey Casey and Justin; good to see some familiar names. I moved here because I'm back in school to finish up a few things.
The bike is bone stock and will probably remain that way for awhile (minus a tail tidy, sliders, and a few little things).
The Bug, I bought that thing because everything was trashed on it. The chassis had to be worked over a little, the body is still in crap shape (but usable for now), and the interior isn't... horrible. Everything except the body and chassis I've replaced:
Suspension has been worked over as hard as it can be while keeping the stock length arms, still only running single fox shocks in the rear though
The engine is ground up, Brazil AS41, rejugged and stroked to a 2110cc with a heavy engle cam
Heads and carbs need to be replaced with something a little higher flowing. At the moment it's a shit combo that makes great torque from 2500-4000rpm but the hp starts to die at around 4500rpm with a cam designed for peak power closer to 7x10^3.
But it doesn't matter, it's still fun.
It looks like fun. Where do you take that out to?
If I can get down to Missouri with it, I have a ton of family that way with enough land to make a person sick... Otherwise here in Iowa, it's just light mud flinging on level B roads as it seems most places here it's illegal to offroad. Sucks in the Midwest though, we need a desert around here somewhere.
