    Ridonkulous! Can you imagine the momentum generated by that lump? Any miscalculation would have been impossible to correct.

    That is as much of a Harley Sportster as a NASCAR is a Chevy Malibu.

    Re: Who says a Harley can't do a back flip?

    ya basically Chuck Carothers was set to do the first harley backflip at Glatiator games in Prague. This guy decided to do this once he found out Chuck flipped the harley in foampit ok and did this just to be first, kinda gay. The bike is all modified as you can see.

    Chuck flipped the stock harley in Prague almost perfectly but got bucked off cuz the suspension is so short/horrible. Ballsy for both of them but kinda queer the guy did that youtube vid to be 'first'.

    That doesn't really count -- it's an XR1200. A modified one, for that matter.

    Let's see someone flip a stock Electraglide -- now THAT would be entertaining!

    I think it's supposed to be an Impala. But your way actually works too.

    By that logic, nearly every bike that you see in professional racing are not the bikes they claim to be.

    It looks like they just changed the forks, the shocks, the tires and changed to a chain drive. Other then that, pretty minor stuff.

    My race bike is pure stock. Everything Yamaha claimed it would be. But then again it is club racing. Unless my $180 in contigency makes me a professional. Can I get food stamps?

    Well, i see a dodge Intrepid flying around the track as a NASCAR vehicle...
    I also see bodies that resemble production vehicles flying down the 1/4 mile as Funny Car shells....

    This is a "Thunderbird" but it's not much thunderbird left!
