^^^^ Now that you bring that up - that area is popular with canoes and kayaks. I'm guessing the guy had to be checking out some bikinis instead of looking at the road. Been thru there hundreds of times and its tough to go anything but straight.

How the hell does anybody hit a gaurd rail on a perfectly straight section of bridge? There's no corners in that area of road.

Volts is Volts

Your name sounds like a vodka brand.. Yeah - do shots of CrazySkullCrusher Vodka, you wont feel a thing!

Dude - fantastic job, very cool. I live by the Dayton mall, can I come see it or we meet up? PM me.

- Stock sizes for a VFR800 btw -

--Ideas from another engineer geek-- -Honda is probly the best shot, the tech center in CA is the top US location if at all. Dunno if they engineer bikes in Ohio anymore. - See if you can find motorcycle engineers via linked in and hook up, there might be a cycle engineer group. - Maybe Harley or Polaris - Dunno if the tech school would be a plus, it may pin you backward, focus on engineering. - Look at small US motorcycle companies and suppliers too - MOTAD (sp?) - Motoczysz, there are a couple others that I'm drawing a blank on. Possibly some small build it shops too. - The electric bike wave is just starting, mbe look at that. - Work damn hard on your CAD skills. Companys now want engineers that do the whole pie - design, develop, build and run the whole project. - Get some basic project management courses as electives will help. - Start figuring a favorite part of discipline that your prefer and study that too. Engines? Suspension? Brakes? or Other? Each is a engineering career in itself. - Dont overlook the racing industry - Be mobile - Learning Japanese is a def plus. - Willing to move to Japan? That's my list of brainstorming fodder - good luck dude.

I wish you the best dude, good luck. But I really dont think it will go together.

Lessee.... digging a bit.... 2001 Buell Blast -- 34 hp -- 492cc.... Bore x Stroke..... 88.9mm x 79.4mm or 3.49999 x 3.1259 (inches) Dude, your talking uping the bore a full half inch. Chances are your cylinder wont even make it to that.

Good looking cruiser...

Nice vid - jeez that trail looks narrow in spots....

There is an outdoor facilty in Camden Ohio - Southeast ohio, that has go kart races - I'm not sure of how often. Its a pretty good sized track out in farmland. I have watched some races and sometimes they let sumo bikes on the track. I suppose its been a couple summers since I have been out there.

I am running a competitor 8 cell LiFePO4 Battery - really these are all assembled with A123 cells in different cases. Generally I like it and it has done the job. There have been some problems with this technology where the bike sits overnite with temps dropping into the 40s and the battery loses its punch. That's what you have to look out for. Something to think about if you go on a trip. But in summer, no problems. I like this for my VFR, but dont think I would go with it for a big touring bike.

www.greatdaytoride.com I havent used them (yet) but I have heard great service and very fair pricing.
