130 MPH biodiesel bike, shooting for 160

The foot clutch sounds a mite scary, particularly at speed, but
|
Why would he be using his clutch "at speed" and why would a foot operated
clutch be a problem anyway?
|
Put a foot-only clutch on your bike and try navigating a few parking
lots, especially in bad weather.
We put one on a Shadow 1100 once... A week later it was back to the hand
clutch.

otherwise
sounds intruiging. I'm sort of partial to diesels anyway.

That's a bit better than the HDT's 105mph, but the HDT does use a bike
specific 650 diesel engine on basically a stock frame, not a BMW car
engine in a custom frame.
Interesting news that Craig Vetter and Rick Vesco have joined the HDT
team. It's good to hear the HDT is still percolating. Now, if only
they can start making and selling a civilian version for a reasonable
price.
