What happened in dyno run it done nothing at all for 40k sounds like a sack of shit!!! gear box looks more trouble than a crocodile on steroids.....save your money people buy something that works like a proven motorcycle.......

Damn this thing is wicked!

Would have been much better with a Hickley Triumph triple,maybe the Daytona motor,it would rev and have loads of torque.probably be lighter too.Whats up with that awful front wheel?

[powersliding]

someone in the project must have fell in love with the wakan, a massive vee twin on a sports bike

[ntrudr800]

Sounds like crap. Must be my speakers (cheap).

At $40k way too expensive. Well, for me I mean. Definitely a show bike.

138 bhp @ 5250 rpm

115 lb.-ft. torque @ 4250 rpm

1638cc

Is that not 1000cc more than the classic cafe racer?

beautiful sounding bike

[EdRacer71]

sounds more Ducati than Harley!

[meomy12]

Nice bike, just tooooo much show off, thats a bit wanky ! But nice work dude !!

Remember, the idea is a low cost racer !! This beauty looks pretty expensive.....

[TriumphTR5]

My god that's a lovely bike!

Is it fully road legal and how much £££ would it be to have it recreated?

[EdRacer71]

latest US Motorcyclist Magazine says that this one shown is a pre-preduction bike and it supposedly cost $80,000 to build. The street going models that will be hitting the US in late 2009 are going to be selling for half that.

Why show the bike on a dyno when you can't see the readings ?

It doesn't look all that good to me ! The Buel would leave it for dead in every respect.

Why couldn't he select 1st gear?

[gravesrus]

Looks too heavy to be a 'cafe racer'.

3 grown men to push iy into the van!

I'd be there and back before you've selected first gear.

It's a WOFTAM

[mrflapjax]

WOFTAM<< Waste of Fucking Time and money?

[jjcoroa]

Beautiful machine.... when can we expect them on the other side of the pond? Taking deposits?

[thebigchip]

I am just a little confused, but, are you from the US? If so, the bike has just been there to the S&S factory in La Crosse. Hoping to upload a video from there very soon.

[miken16]

looks gorgeous..not quite sure about the huuuuuuuuuuuuge vtwin or the massive exhaust out the side....

wheels, tank and set are stupendous though. love it.

[thebigchip]

I can't comment on the exhaust, but apparently when it [exhaust] runs hot the joints will glow gold in colour. The big Vtwin was why the bike was created in the first place. The S&S company is 50 years old this year and the bike was contructed for the competition that evolved from this. Thankks for your comments.
