Very cool and looks well done. Shame the nickel trick won't work on that one.

You think it won't do the nickel trick. Why? 2400cc Now that is a hoot. High Performance Cam as well. I like the owner, he may just be a genius.

Because 30 seconds into it he revs it up and rocks back and forth. Still I agree that he did a great job.

I guess he couldn't decide whether he wanted a 'Varley or a Halkyrie' so he settled on a "Holy Crap! What was that!!" But really. The guy must be a genius to make that all work together.

How can this be a Valk "want to be" if it pre-dated the Valkyrie 6 yrs or so? I think the bike is shear genius.
I can't figure out what he's got going on there with the transmission.
Does anybody know?

Having owned 3 yes count em 3 Corvairs what did he done with the fan that was mounted on the top of the engine to blow cooler air over the cylinders??  Jusy a little curious on that particular point.  And contrary to whatever Ralph Nader said or did or done-i enjoyed my Corvairs. I liked the handling and the go anywhere attitude in those northern Illinois winters.  Man did an incredible amount of engineering to come up with the finished product.  Well done.  RIDE SAFE.

He said the tranmission/engine has a 90 Degree conversion kit to the stock Harley Tranny and CLutch to make it work.
Again pure genius.
It sounds just like a Valk.
Maybe with a 6 pack of mufflers you could hear it better.

They should have put the push button tranny from the Corvair. That would be different.
