Title: Bad Ass Bagger
Post by: Mongo on October 10, 2005, 02:20:07 PM
I know I'm going to catch a lot of crap over this post with all the anti Harley people on this board but I was truly blown away when I saw this one over the weekend! We were hanging out with the guys from ATP (American Turbo Power) yesterday at the Hog drags at LACR when the trash talk started.

This one dude starts talking trash when one of the guys from ATP puts his rider on his Ultra Classic and opened the big can of whoop ass! I about craped my pants when he put that pig into the 10's with a hurt motor!

Harry also does few turbo Asian bikes but, they would not let them humiliate the Harley boys yesterday!

With enough money I can get my office chair into the 'tens'. :monkeymoon:  :motorsmile:  :beers:

  OK, lets see him run against a turbo Valk or Goldwing, then...... :bigok:

For the money that guy has wrapped up in that turbp setup, you could probably buy a stock japanese bike that could run 10.90's.

What do you think Pete; if we dump enough money into this thing we could put it into the 10's?

It would need to be able to recline while driving it.  More Aerodynamic that way, unless the rider has big feet! :shock:

I think that big HD is kinda cool.  I like sleepers.  My folks had a '70 Buick GS.  It just looked like a big green family tank.  My dad surpised the heck out of people with that.  Can you imagine playing around with a guy on a Gix6 or something like that from stop light to stop light with a big, fully dressed cruiser?  Pretty fun, I'll bet.

The boys at ATP (http://www.atp-hd.com) build some pretty clean systems. The folks in the stands went crazy when watched that rolling Barcalounger go down the track.

I actually would love to have a Harley but the wife says one bike is enough. She has her heart set on a bay boat. Don't get me wrong...she loves to ride but, she loves fishing more.

My Harley friend  in Austin had a brother that was into building customs with mongo power in West Palm Beach, Florida.  I visited for a week one time.

Two bikes impresed me, one was a turbo Buell.

The other was Blown Harley clone that he'd compete in dyno contests with.  

I wanted to ride both of those.  The only ones he let me were his Harley road king and wife's night train.  The Road King was pretty nice to ride, but I'd take a Goldwing over that anyday.  His pride and joy was a Confederate though.

For the value, I'll take the Bandit.  I'd venture to say he had several hundred thousand bucks invested in his bikes.  Supposedly he was a speed boat mechanic in Miami, which always made me kinda go hmmmmm...  and all this money came from a marine mechanics income in Miami ?... yahhh!

I like the bike... :)

.....depends on which smuggler's cigarette you're working on.

All this money and all they can think of buying is a freakin' HARLEY?  Apparently never heard of MV Augusta F4 i guess.  :duh:
