His name was FATSO

Here he is at the Extreme Horsepower Shootout 2005, held at the Wayville Pavillion.

I'm the bald bloke at the start of the video (the one that looks like shrek)

Thats my mate Bill Towler from Towler Performance in the saddle.
He owns the Dyno and sponsored the shootout.
Bill was like a kid in a candy shop that weekend, he got to drive/ride every car and bike on the dyno.
(mind you letting another man sit on ya harley is a bit like letting another man sit on ya wife)

Ended up getting 71HP out of the old boy (hardley extreme horsepower) but he sounded a hell of a lot better than the Yamaha R1 that had 160HP
What a weekend, fast cars, fast bikes and fast girls!

If you have ever wanted to stand next to a (ahem) slightly modified Harley Davidson as it punched 120MPH, you should enjoy this


Warning: I drop the "F" bomb (just once) so you might not want your kiddies to see it.
