Who likes Motorcycles? Who likes Viper powered Motorcycles?

Saw this on the Haggerty Monthly update:

Now someone can say: "Yeah, it's got a Viper Engine in it"

Cool concept, but....I get in enough trouble on my Buell 1125CR. 370 lbs wet, 156 rwhp (my personal bike's dyno run - bone stock), 54" wheelbase, 50 degree lean angles left and right. 1125cc liquid cooled twin, DOHC, 4 valve, 11,500 rpm redline.

That’s pretty cool.
I’ve got a long list of motorcycle related injuries so these days I’m more of a slow and loud kinda guy. But I do appreciate the work it took to build that.

Love Eric Buell and all his Bikes
GREAT Bike Triplegreen500!

 

[Triplegreen500]

EriK, please....

I've worked with the man for a long time, and it's a pet peeve.

Great guy, damn good guitarist, and some amazing motorcycles. My current stable:
95 S2 Thunderbolt #1365/1399 (totaled; deciding if I want to fix the cracked frame or not...)
98 S3 Defender police bike project (#2 of 13 total built)
98 S1W white lightning
98 S1W "battle of the twins" race bike - Erik's personal race bike from the series, as-raced in '98
06 Ulysses
07 Ulysses (parts bike)
09 1125CR

My Uly is my swiss-army-bike, my S1W is the old-school hooligan, and the CR is the beast. I do miss my S2 though - I could ride that bike for days. Comfy, you sit IN it instead of ON it, and you become one with the motorcycle. Truly. Damn deer...jumped out in front of me at 70, I never even saw it, until I'd cut it in half with the motorcycle. I superman'd over the bars and slid 320 feet up the road; the bike went down and slid 600'. I walked away; the deer was cut in half; the bike's frame is broken through in three places (the steering head nearly came off; the only thing that stopped it was when the wheel hit the front of the engine case). Debating if I want to fix it, or buy a buddy's that he bought brand new in '96 and has less than 5k miles on. Decisions, decisions....

[POMONAMISSEL]

what about this one ?

 

[Budnicks]

A lot of engine on them bikes
cool to look at, hell to ride I'm sure

*I don't own one now, but have owned many
both super (rice-rockets), road/cruisers, or dirt bikes,
including quads or 3 wheelers

*I think it may be why I lived past my 62nd Birthday

I forgot about that one. How long ago did they build it?

 

[Runcharger]

I got it all covered. No need to mix them together.

 

[Outlawd]

I absolutely love motorcycles, own lots of them. I also love Vipers, owned one but have no interest in mixing the two. I saw the Viper concept bike at Sturgis many years ago wouldn't want one but if somebody offered me to drive it I would have to say hell yes!!

I have been riding since 1971, I have had BSA'S, Honda 750's,Z-1 900's, moto guzzi's for many years,goldwings, and Harleys.
But, I am still alive by some miracle. I have done some stupid things when I was younger.
I still ride a 1980 GL1100 gold wing, and when I want to step it up I still have a 1982 Honda CBX 6 cylinder. But, those days are coming to an end soon. 750's look pretty good to me, at 69 years old, and still alive.!

That was my dream bike, always thought it looked like a pitbull on roids with the bite to back it up!

I always thought those white CBX's were a cool bike.

 

[Scott Engelhardt]

Motorcycles, my first and longest love. I have owned many. I have settled in to the small bore two stroke Yamahas. I would love to own an 1125 and if I find a nice one I will. I have owned several Vmax and bought a 1985 new. It was a beast, but second gear was weak. Still I loved the bike.
This is my next purchase

 

[Richard Cranium]

I'll take this...........
