    So almost 700bhp per ton!! Are you actual mental?
    in basic terms... i think so yes. especially beings as it's the equivalent of a locked diff beings as both chains run to a common shaft that the driveshafts come off the end off! i have plans to get it down santapod one day , i just looked it up, the 0-60 of the standard bike is 3.7 seconds, at a guess on dirt taking into consideration the extra power from the 2 engines, but the loss from weight and the fact it's on dirt, i'm guessing it'll be somewhere nearer 4

    it's running a pair of the original sequential bike box's, i don't know about the sprockets imbertween, but it's running 15"s which iirc was what the bikes ran, so it must be somewhere near origional?

    Not sure if it was a Class 8 or 10 but one of them took some speed record a couple of years ago - was it indoor 0-60 acceleration or indoor land speed record or something?
