No, but you can roll it in glitter.....
DangerousR6 said:Ewwwwwwww, El Bruto...Nice, Ultima makes some good motors from what I've heard. Yip some of Rogers bikes are a bit over the top and $$$$$$$$$$, I got this one for a steal...It listed for $46k I picked it up for $30k. Yip oil is in the frame, that's why the seat is so low, no oil tank... :icon_biggrin:dmraco said:Yeah...I think the crotch rockets may win..gearing and powerband advantage as well as weight. The thing I like about the twins is most of that power is available around 2000-3000 RPM.
The motor is a custom built Ultima el Bruto..113...fully polished.
Roger Bourget builds some cool bikes...does his frame hold the oil???
Ya, his aluminum framed bikes are about twice as much as what mine cost. No issues with the heat at all, but then again this is Texas so it all just blends together....The oil in the frame cools rather quickly in the frame, even sitting still at an idle at temperature you can't feel any heat off the frame.dmraco said:DangerousR6 said:Ewwwwwwww, El Bruto...Nice, Ultima makes some good motors from what I've heard.

Very nice...aluminum frames is another bourget trademark.
How hot does that get when riding? I know my bike has an aluminum oil tank and it gets REAL hot because the aluminum transfers heat better. Makes it a pain to put the legs down when doing some hard riding.
The 308 has always been a favorite Ferrari of mine.. :icon_thumright:smavridis said:currently my dad is working on our 308 gtsi. it will be mine when i am 25 and when it's done i get to race it. he is making it more sporty and for track purposes. also the interior is being redone.

are you using the ferrari motor? I have seem folks that for a SB Chevy 350...it rocks!
i like the 308 but it is too slow, my fave for looks and speed is the 1984 GTO. ofcoarse the modern stuff is way faster but that's ok the 80's italian cars looked better and changed styling as we know itsmavridis said:currently my dad is working on our 308 gtsi. it will be mine when i am 25 and when it's done i get to race it. he is making it more sporty and for track purposes. also the interior is being redone.
yeah, it is, i wouldn't race a modern sportbike if the rider has any experience. i have some 4 wheeled stuff in the works too but most of it is for other people. i have a twin turbo small block chevy in the works for my own car but ran out of cash. it all depends on if i get this job! i can have a street car that will smoke my bike and many others.Super Turbo Deluxe Custom said:That's like saying my helicopter is better than your boat.
