he aint the first,,,we had one around here that a guy built and drove us all nutz for about a month or more ttill someone finally called the law,,,, nothing more obnoxious than just about to doze off at night and that dam harley come zooming by with straights....i take that back,,,,some of them truckers with them loud jake brakes needs to be fined 5000 dollars everytime they rack em down,,,, i have often thought what a 250/3000 would do to a diesel engine but the truck might run off the road and hit someone,,, ok back to my regularly scheduled life now,,,,

So he removed a 100 pound 40 hp engine and stuck in a 350 pound 47 hp Harley engine?  Nothing against Harley's here just saying a fool is a fool is a fool.... Good morning Hotglue. Raymond

Fairly interesting mix of components, but why did they decide to make it "obnoxiously loud" like too many other harley's? I don't reckon it'd be much good for deer hunters and such. Why not use a Yamaha engine and put some decent exhaust on it? Then it would be "much gooder".

some of them truckers with them loud jake brakes needs to be fined 5000 dollars everytime they rack em down,,,,
You can cuss that jake brake if ya want. If you ever drive 80,000lbs you will learn to love it. Yea, some of em are loud. Get over it. They are safer with them than without them... hence the name jacobs brake. Its not about noise. Its about stopping the damn truck.
