6 cyl build for the gearheads

[Fire-medic]

Probably like lots of you, I read lots of internet content looking for things of interest. Like what the guys from "Car Talk" called, "Time Wasters."

Well, here's a thread on a British drag bike build, no, not 'built in Great Britain,' but built from English bike parts, heavily-massaged as you will see. Lots of one-off parts, and in the spirit of Russ Collins/Boris Murray's multi-engine drag bikes, take a look for yourself. It's been in the 'build-phase' for a couple of years, and is now running and going through the tuning. They hope to have it competing this fall.

It's a pair of Triumph triples, as-in, "Boris, I'll see you your two Triumph parallel-twins, and raise you another piston on each!"

One look at this picture, and you have an idea of the $$$$ spent on this.
