If someone will put up the cash I will build one with a small block chevy.
E.J. Potter had a motorcycle with a injected chevy V8 in a motorcycle back in the 60's. I have some old pictures of it smoking the rear slick thru the quarter mile.

I SAW A SUZUKI 250 DIRT BIKE AT SAND MOUNTAIN WITH A 1100CC SUZUKI STREET BIKE MOTOR IN IT. FROM CAMP IT SOUNDED LIKE A VW BUGGY ON THE MOUNTAIN.

Saw a Banshee with a Suzuki 1300 cc in it last weekend at Dumont. SH!!!!!!T! That thing was fast. Actually I think it was Banshee plastics on a custom frams. Super long swing arm. Also saw the same engine in a sweet buggy. The guy said it weighed 750 lbs without people in it. Sounded and ripped great!

Saw an LT500 with some type of Helicopter Jet engine. Does that count? He went around the oval a few times at Deerfield Speedway in Ohio during a GNC National TT event about 5 years ago. The heat from that thing was incredible! It ran slicks on the back but traction was never a problem since it moved via the thrust from the engine and not the rear tires turning. It was funny to see it go around the oval. He really got on it one time and hit the parachute just as he was entering one of the corners and bicylced some. It looked like a CRAZY ride!

Biggest I have personally seen was a banshee with a ZX1100 engine in it. Stretched out pretty long and still couldn't keep the front end down when he was going up Olds. He smoked every other bike and still couldn't get on the throttle 100%. It was great!

There is that guy who gives demonstrations on his banshee powered by a jet engine. That is huge!

Talking about a nasty ride, think about setting next to that thing, loud, smelly,
vibrate you to death, all torque no RPM, just what you need on that thing unsure.gif . Only Jesse would do that. I guess for the $$$$$$$. laughing.gif

Rubberneck
He was originally calling them pussies for wanting to make a trike. He said he wanted it on 2 wheels. Guess he wasn't aware how big that damn engine was. laughing.gif Once he saw it he got smart. Guess he ate his own words.

I've seen a few streetbike motored quads. I was gonna say Tim Arfons with the jet motored quad is probably the biggest, but Fireballs beat me to it. ph34r.gif
