 Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you’re in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get. |

My thought also, but gotta give him credit for the engineering.

Pretty cool, the guy ia obviously talented, I think it would not keep up with a Valk, I owned a Corvair in my distant past. Hoser |

That was super-creative. A 2,400 CC, 6-cylinder engine in a bike that weighs less than the Valk ... That guy is good. PS I never would have given up the Valk for it.  |

Someone should give this guy a Porsche 911 engine and see what he comes up with.

I like it! It seems to be well done and should be a blast to ride.

I'm surprised, I thought the last Corvair engine was put in an air boat, long ago!

Neat project and very well done. Looks like his hair color changed several shades from start to finish. He just needs to change the slide at the end where it says 1963 Corviar Engine. Kinda makes me wish I had kept the Goldwing carcass...  |
