Super-Fly LSR attempt

[ClineDesign]

George tested his Kawasaki Thursday afternoon at a local airstrip. It was loud and he hit an estimated 100 mph while making 4 passes up and down the strip. The bike sounded great and George is pumped for the rescheduled Bonneville Speed Week.

Great to see that it is running. Congratulations George.
Great pictures Jay.

Thanks for support and assistance you provided me at the airport this afternoon, I could not run without it! Thanks also for the great action photos and posting them for everyone to see!
Todays run was the first run with the 'tires on the pavement'. The bike ran well on the dyno, but trying to load a pipey two stroke at the high point of the power curve is like walking on the edge of the fence.... no too easy, so the road test is the REAL performance test.
Now, I have to double check everything and prepare for the salt, "The Great White Dyno".
I think, no, I 'do' smell a little Nitro in the wind......

Thanks Gordon!
I think this scooter 'could possibly' break a record or two! Although, a fairing would help when racing in the partial fairing class.
BTW, It had Plenty of smoke from the stinger, so it definitely isn't broke....

What's the latest on your projects, inquiring minds would like to know.

Glad to hear the smoke still flies. Good luck with the records.

As far as my efforts, made three events so far this year, and only broke the car at two of them.
Reliability is getting better, now I have to relearn how to drive the thing with 1/3 the HP, though I did manage to take the weight down by about 25%

Hope to get at least one more event in before the it starts raining regularly.

Good photos Jay.
George, my grandson heard Super Fly through the woods yesterday and put his hands over his ears. Only 2 years old but I think he's going to be a gearhead.
Good luck at Bonneville.

As of yesterday, Max and his Vincent now have the record at 185 for streamliner with sidecar. I think he will retire now.

I warmed up the photo a little cuz the first ones were too blue.

Now that's a real T-shirt logo.

Hey John, the idea of putting it on a t-shirt sounds really cool!
I was telling Jay that if I framed it, maybe the wife would let me hang-it as art in the living room!
