This car/bike was designed and build by Dave Piontek and Jay Novak. It's powered by a 120" V-twin Harley Davidson engine. Power is at 120HP and weight is 1100#. See a high quality video and more at http://www.funcar.com
It sounds GREAT!

Congrats and keep up the good work.
If I could keep my foot out of it, about 35 mpg, but it's too much fun to not to use all 120 horses so I get about 25.

By playaboyy02 [Affiliate User] 1209118105 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe motor is a 120" JIMS Harley Davidson with balance shafts. I tried a 124 S&S but they shake so bad I couldn't drive the car. Took a loss on the S&S just to get rid of it. I can't Imagine how bad the 145 must shake. 125 foot pounds of torque from the JIMS works great in an 1100# car! Not as fast as a sport bike motor but that's not the point.

How about a 145"S&S race unit?
I bet it's a lot of fun as it is now but why stop there?

Excellent use of a very proven engine. This should market quite easily and could prove to be one of the means to break the back of over priced gasoline.
Light weight construction combined with excellent engineering makes for a nice little two seater.
EXOTIC !!!!!

Yes, it was! I live in Brighton, MI about a mile from the GM Proving Grounds. See you at the Baker's Restaurant Car Show on Sundays.

Crazy to think that while looking at things around the world on the internet you stumble on a local guy who is doing something unique.
Hope everything works out for you! I'll have to see it in person some day.
