The Missus and I hit the dealership on Saturday to finalize the deal, and my old bike makes Monday's paper...

Took me a while and I even had to call in the husband to inquire about a 10 litre engine then I saw the typo :banghead:

:congrats: on the picture and the write up. Saw the size of the engine--now that's some mod.

 

[spydaman60]

how'd you ever get that 9,998 cc engine under the tupperware? :dontknow: never any heat issues with that size motor either? :roflblack:

 

[Bob Denman]

(I actually sent that in last March... completely forgot about it! pps
BRP just followed my lead with their new mill... :roflblack:
10 litres would be a touch over 600 cubic inches...

...smells like toasted Kendas for lunch again!

On which make and model did you learn to drive, and did you pass your driver's test the first time? 1972 Dodge Polara

My first car was a 1972 Dodge Polara.

I had the big two-door hardtop...
and a miserable 318 V-8 that made no horsepower, but burned fuel at an unbelieveably bad rate! :shocked:
Beige with a brown vinyl top

Mine too was the two-door with the 318 V-8, but was blue. At 17 years old, and in automotive repair class during High School I took care of the horse power issue.

You lucky devil! MIne was a full-blown "smogger" engine... :gaah:
But I did add some killer foglights, and an eight-track player to it...

You should have no problem selling it with an engine like this: "Under the hood: 9,998cc liquid-cooled V-twin" - :yikes: :shocked:

 

[jerpinoy]

I guess that the kid who was inputting the info for the article sneezed or something at just the wrong time...

 

[Flanker]

WOW! I had no idea it was such a rocket ship (gas hog too, no doubt). With that Khaffiya on your head.......................you do look a bit like a Sheik from the old country (Denman being such a good Arabic name and all). As Salaam A'Leikum! Hey! Wait a minute........................you ARE Abu Bob! :yikes: Oh yea....................congrats on the new ride!
