This is a comprehensive document about building a bonneville bike to go for the 200 mph land speed record.
Using a 139" Orca V-Twin, turbo charged. Excellent pix of putting all the components together, with interesting commentary.
I haven't finished reading it all, took about an hour to get about halfway thru.

- SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

Never heard of it until couple weeks ago, guy from Mass brought one up.
Don't remember the issue, but it was really good.
