If this bike ever goes into production, with the hp and mpg numbers these guys are quoting, I think they will sell plenty. Depending on how it handles I might even buy one.
I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop...Diesel Cruisers! Imagine a Road King crossed with a Freightliner. Yeehaw! How American can you get!! I'm sure there would be tons of people who want to check the "Cummins" box when ordering their new Diesel Glide. All those chopper owners can feel the hard reality of depreciation when they trade up for their new rides.
Seems they have even taken a pre-production version to the salt flats for speed testing. They were supposed to be ready about this time, but no news means no bikes.
150 mpg? Doubt it. Look at the size of that engine. 450 lbs. Doubt it. Anyone know the projected price? How about at least $30,000 American. What a joke. Who here would really buy this?
I've seen a couple diesel attempts in the past, and they've always been lacking in power. How is it these guys are suddenly able to make an engine with such unbelievable power?
