13bT drag bike
Looks like they're getting help from MPS...this **** is scary, imagine it making 800+hp...it takes ***** of steel to ride that thing

i like the idea, but a few things don't sit well with me. perhaps, it's just ignorance on my part with my car facts getting lost in translation to motorcycle use.
i might swallow the 1200 BHP-thing, but 15,000 RPM?
don't get me wrong though, i like it. it looks really cool and i would imagine it'll run even better. if Harleys have nightmares, this would be the big, bad wolf or whatever monster is causing them to "[s]oil" the sheets.

i'm thinking what was written, was written well before they started doing actual research and by now have realized that they don't need to shoot for that kind of RPM to make power. if they have the skill to build it, i'm hoping they have the common sense not to be foolish and chase urban legends of 13Bs revving 15+.

The bike in the picture has nothing to do with the website that it came from.The people that run the website are building there own bike which THEY claim will rev to 15000rpm.

Nothing like having a glowing red exhaust manifold inches below your nuts to get that testosterone boiling(literally) and adrenaline pumping!!!!

My project. Not crazy or brave, just wanted something different. Not a bomb. Will be approx 550hp on methanol reving to 9 and pushing the power through two stage powerglide. If I can't ride it I will find someone who will......can't beat the power to weight of a 13B

Thanks mate! Virgin ground for me. Not been there done that....cool project that has a lot of people helping but I am a one man band running on shoe string budget. Hope to have running August 08. Gotta be a go fast bike. Looked at motorcycle motors....BIG budget stuff. With a rota I can go to the local Mazda agent for parts....huge horsepower to be got...bullet proof...light....smooth power....sounds the part..looks the part....can't wait till the thing is making noise.

Mate, I am NOT Max Croot of Mad Max Racing. The photo is my bike that he has put on his own web site. I have nothing to do with Steve at MPS. The photo's are of my project here in New Zealand. But I wish I had his bank account.....I sent a photo of my bike to him as he is starting a similar build. Thought he might have got back to me to share some idea's.

Ahhh I see lol....sorry I misread what was posted above. Wicked project though.

Yea...I'm no race horse either. What with 60 hour weeks and the wife holding the cheque book. If I get it done and if it goes straight, wouldn't be great if it cought on....rotaries running there own class on two wheels..time will tell. My build has reached a stage where I have the drive heads off the front of the motor and gearbox all sorted. Frame built and working on engine mounts. Meth pump on next and throttle body on, wiring, brakes and coolant system to do. Then the big cheque for the motor internals and august testing hopefully.
