Default Bad MF Fatty

Have any of you seen this on the RB racing web site? I wonder what was done to the motor.

Notice the way the guy doesn't rev the motor real high before the burn out.
That bike just might surprise some rice rockets and I would sure love to see it.

I wondered about that myself and that is part of the reason I posted that. So I could get a few opinions, I thought it would be easy to speed it up but what about the burn?

I can't believe this didn't elicit more comments.

I watched the vid several times, it actually looks legit to me. I think if the video was larger the speed perception factor would diminish dramatically.

Thanks for posting. Man, I love your ride, that tan offset and fender bib just look great.

Thanks Tkdeluxe. I love those same side fishtails. They look better somehow than the one on each side version.
I did a little more reading on that bike and discovered that it's a S&S motor and probably a racing motor. When you twist the throttle on those bad boys you better be hanging on tite.
Glad you enjoyed it. I think it a hoot.

The video seems to suddenly speed up...

Who cares though! That's just badass. I watched it 6 times.
