Re: A Harley doing the DAKAR Rally?

I wish them luck. They are, of course completely insane.

Can you imagine being the "monkey" for the entire race?

In related news, the Vatican has announced that the next pope will be a Mormon...the old-skool kind.



Personally, I wouldn't want to take a water-cooled anything into the deep desert. The liquid, combined with the big "thumps" of the engine are liable to bring sandworms. Hope the monkey is up on his weirding weapons. Yeah, I went straight to sci-fi geekdom. You can't stop me; don't even try.

Oh, By the way, does anyone remember the Europaean fellow what went round-the-world on an R1? I got his signature on my tee-shirt at the last IMS in Atlanta, but now can't remember anything else about him.

Ok, I'll admit it, this is cool! I truly wish HD would put together a factory sponsored effort to race in things like this.



On a side note; After all this work with the V-Rod. I'll bet these guys cried when they got a look at the new Buell!



Also, like some of you have been saying. I too, pity the poor monkey. I see a very sore back and bum in his future!
