The 11 sec KTM
« on: August 25, 2010, 08:20:26 pm »
This was not one of Brad's and Mine best ideas.
The 11 sec 495 was widow maker for sure twin carb meathol burning killer
Look at the rear tyre it's smoking allready. I love to know how much real horse power it had.

I love this sort of thing!

I had a bit of a go at drag racing in the early 90's. I maintained and drove a blown alcohol doorslammer and did most of the machining work on a blown, alcohol/nitrous top bike. Great memories but LOT of work

I can appreciate the work that went into that bike
