The bevel gears in the 90 degree gearbox would just shear and leave you with a shiny expansive boat anchor. Cruisers suck and have no place here. The motor might work better in a trike  |

I remember seeing a VTWin bike from out Dubbo way, on TV, once. It was made from two cylinders cut from the back of a Rolls Royce Merlin V12 (Spitfire) Engine.... wonder what happened to that beast.

The builders name is Lucky Keizer. There are a few web pages that mention the bike. The engine ended up in a streamliner. |
