@slojovideo

So nice of you to finally drop in and offer a list of lame excuses.

("The sun was in my eyes, my shoelace came untied.... it was all somebody else's fault!")

Just adds another layer of amusement to this this video!!!!!!

@slojovideo said, "The bike had one mile run time when the video was taken"

This guy is so full of BS and contradictions - he's bragging that it's a drag racer in this video, and it's only got a mile on it???!!! From two runs down the drag strip, no doubt..........

"Uhhh" Actually the bike handles nice. It has Modern race replica tires, the chassis is tight and reasonably quick in a set of turns. This 1948 is a pleasure to ride considering it's vintage design parameters. I have put many enjoyable miles on since the build it is always a popular and reliable bike when it shows up at any event.

Why all the sarcasm? Its appears as if all this negativity comes from one disgruntled individual (Tom).

"Funny little pills" This bike is a fun project, something different you don't have to like it. The wheels are from HD's 1950's road racing period, pre Sportster.

"DRAG RACER" The little drag racer image is derived from the velocity stacked twin carb head seat up. The trunk was a reluctant last minute add on so I could go touring around Florida during Bike Week and carry a few articles of clothing.

"Gypsy Tom" Clattering Hunk of junk? The bike had one mile run time when the video was taken (fresh build). A Jim's Machine lifter collapsed in the video. The lifter pumped up after a shutoff and restart and has never collapsed since. Listen closely to the video, the motor was running on one cylinder. My used, original H. D. coil shorted on one side.

"Drag racer, road racer, sport-touring, and cruiser, all in one bike"

-Seems like it's about time you stopped taking those funny little pills, boy!
