We got a new Dyno King down here in Florida;

BadRod made a respectable 159.8

QWKROD (Bob K) made an awesome run at just over 160

But the new King of Horse Power is wpbvrod (Juan Zuetta) - 162.8

As you can see from the attached picture they would not let us Vrodders enter into the unlimited class. As soon as we pulled up they added the V Rod class. Look at the difference between Juan's run and the so called "unlimited" class winner and then sit back be proud of your V Rod and congratulate Juan. Jeff

CRAZY CLIVE

You should have recommended that they put you in the 95" class as 1550 is about 95".

Well done Juan, BadRod and Jeff.... very impressive.

Almost as impressive was Palm Beach Harley selling 2 used VRods at 11,995 - which was stunning.

Still couldnt interest the gf in one, she wants the low rider....

We really had a great time with Jeff and Bob.
It was amazing when we put our bikes on line for the dyno how everybody came to us amazed about the our vrods. It was a non-stop compliments and talking about our bikes...(and that was even before we make some HP numbers..)

As usual, VRODs rules, anywhere, anytime....

Congratulations to Juan new "DYNO KING" we sure had some fun showing some people what a V ROD is capable of. After the show I rode with the unlimited winner who made 138hp 130ft lbs and who is a friend of mine from the west coast of Florida and who came over to dust me as we have had a friendly rivalry on who has the fastest bike for over 40 years. I always seem to have a faster bike when we get to see each other but he was sure he was going to get me this time. Well he couldn't believe it when I put down 160 hp as he thought that I had just bought the bike and was going to turbo it so he figured he had me. Well when we hit the street and raced in almost every gear I waxed him so bad he couldn't believe it. We are talking maybe 20-25 bikes thru the first 3 gears. I guess it's back to the drawing board for him.

Great job guys. Not in my budget for this winter, but once we're done with the new house next year, I got plans for next winter :twisted: I just gotta figure what to tell the wife when she asks "why do you need that?"

Just tell her the word she is looking for is want not need, then there is no need to explain.

Jeff, Bob and Juan great job! Did anybody get pictures of the looks on the peoples faces when you guys pulled those numbers?

Actually, I like the "revised" version of that statement:

"Kick ass and take initials because we don't have time to take names". lol

Right you are Jeff, D&D I think I lost a little torque down low with this pipe but I love the looks and sound especially since it puts the noise behind my ear but into the ears of anyone I'm racing as they are usually behind me!:laugh:

Juan, I didn't mean you or Jeff, we are all too close unless of course Jeff decides to push the nitrous button then you and I are done for.
