    I asked about footage but apparently there isn't any from onboard... Would have been cool to see it though!
    I imagine that if you're trying to break records, even a gopro is making it less streamline?

    That's good, that , riding fast on salt, ( someone asked why it's called Peper ) i think you put it on with salt.

    That's harder than you imagine as it's like riding on dirt, thats why they used 4" longer Swing Arm. but they are allowed to add Nitro to the fuel . it would not be a land speed record as the NItro Top Bike Harleys go over 200mph in just a quarter mile & an old Shovel did 312mph back in the 80's. it would be a class record.

    But I'm putting in a protest as that thing is Rolling on Stolen BUELL WHEEL's with front circumpfrence brakes. 

    the wheels very important in speed trial's, the lighter the better . they put weight into the bike for traction , BUT they need light weight wheels. all HARLEY FACTORY wheel too bloody heavy. the factory has no idea. in that area so rip off Ericks idea's. 

    but well done to the team of Aussies
