      3 Thoughts'
      Too much time on their hands,
      More balls than brains,
      Only in America. Well maybe not so much of the last one. Down here we have "Lucky Kaiser". Chopped two cylinders off a V12 and put them in a bike frame.

              I actually prefer the radial installation in this one:



              I'm a big airplane nut, and to me mounting the engine like this is more "accurate". That, and how the frame behind the engine actually lookes pretty close to an actual radial engine mount- I just think it looks cool.

                          This site may have some security features that don't like direct linking. Let's try again.



                          HOPEFULLY that should work.
