    Only in Clubman!

    Just to stick with the "Old School" chopper traditions, it will not have front brake, so I doubt it would be WERA legal. However, I'm seriously thinking about adding foot-clutch/hand shift, so I could run AHRMA. Do you think they would allow something with 8ft wheel base?:D

    I'm not kind to old SRs! I like to big bore them. Big cam them and big carb them. Then, I ring the their little necks(throttles) till I hear valves drop, pistons melt and cam chains slap!
    Actually I really enjoyed racing the my SR(s) and thats why I chose SR motor for a couple of street projects.
    With 45 HP at the wheel I'll be in HD ballpark of power at 1/2 the size and I/10 the expence.

    You were there for several incedents of SR abuse! Did I ever show you that paper weight (piston) that came out of that motor?
