Supermoto thread

[DRTSRFR]

Oh...I'm no kid.;)

[Gasturbine]

...go make a Hardly thread then.

Naw, I like ranting in this one.

There's nothing more annoying than a bunch of lollygaggin' twins taking up the corners at 15 miles per hour.

You kids [shaking head] always about going fast, sheesh.

[sumoashe]

I pit worked for pascal picotte at most of the midwest races when he rode for harley, and got to talk to the porsche engineers that were there constantly collecting data. The vr-1000 engine that the vrod is based on started with a bottom end design in house at harley, heads originally designed by roush yates. Design for the vrod engine was handed entirely to porsche, yes there were harley engineers present. But porsche headed the program for harley. Harley has used porsche for design help since the shovel. And your bike is not american made, it's american assembled. I've torn apart probly 40 vrod engine's for big bore setup's, stamped right into it says made in france. Harley's are only about 30% american sourced product. Hardly what I would call american muscle. And if you hate supermoto's so much, why even come into the thread other than to show how ignorant you are? If you don't like the bikes stay the fuck out.

Hahaha, lolable bickering.

Here's the high points:

Super motto is the gayest thing ever to happen to motorcycles.

gasturbine,...I get the feeling you ride a sportbike cause your a squid. If you don't know what a squid is, you've just proven my point.

youre gay.

Nothing pisses off sportbike riders more than dragging a knee on a supermoto around the outside of them.

youre gay.

"harley=40 year old technology at tomorrow's prices"

Not only are you gay, but ignorant as well.

vrod's are slow and handle like shit

your gay.



I have a real Harley.

[DRTSRFR]

now I ride a Harley

...go make a Hardly thread then.

I ride in Harley heaven. There's nothing more annoying than a bunch of lollygaggin' twins taking up the corners at 15 miles per hour.:yawn:

Rubicon...Some of us old farts haven't hung up our balls yet...

Not only are you gay, but ignorant as well. It is a cruiser, not a sport bike...apple and oranges. For a cruiser, 124 RWHP from a 2 cylinder engine is nothing to scoff at.

coming from sportbikes you should know this. And your vrod is not american muscle, engine was designed by porsche(as all harley engines have been since the shovelhead), and built in france(cast into the engine itself).

Wrong. Some early design assistance was acquired from Porsche, but the build, rights, and ownership all belong to Harley. There is not a Porches nameplate anywhere on the engine. Your like saying all 4 valve per cyinder engines were built by Peugeot. Stupid.

Also 124 hp shit in a 700 pound machine. My 450 makes 60 at the wheel will smoke that, done it several times.

What a tard. Its already been said, its a cruiser.

You want a mans bike try my 570, makes 78hp at the wheel and weighs 210lbs with full tank. It's about power to weight.

If your gay.

If you want a real harley

I have a real Harley.

I've been thinking of selling my 48 pan. One year only production bike, only one to come with a springer due to extra's from knuckle production.

Yeah, right. And Im going up to the International Space Station next week too.

Some day you will grow up little man.

Porsche "assisted" HD in the initial design stage only. It is a 100% Harley engine.

If by "assisted" you mean design the cylinder head, which dictates the power output, then ok.


Nice bike BTW, even though i don't do Harleys myself.

[Gasturbine]

Don't you mean Porsche power? Harley didn't design that engine.

Nice uuc, klx or kx?

[LJ851]

Nope. I just like style and American power.

weeeeeee!

[Gasturbine]

So you went from a fast bike to a slow bike, real manly there.

I have an worked '08 Night Rod Special. Ive got intake, exhaust, and bigger injectors in her. It has a dyno tune, making 124 hp @ the rear wheel.

You want manly? Heres a pic...

I sense your overcompensating for something?

Nope. I just like style and American power.

Harley's are great, it's the owners that aren't.

LOL! Nice stereotype! Any feelings on people of color?

And thats based on 8 years as a factory trained harley tech. "harley=40 year old technology at tomorrow's prices" I'd say come and ride one of my race bikes but I doubt you could handle it.

LOL! Sonny, I have already forgotten what you will ever know about racing motorcycles. Now take you little gay bike, and be on your way.

Probly doesn't have enough shiny stuff for you either.

See my pic above...I dont do chrome.

Gay. Wouldnt be caught dead on one.
