If the frame can be described as the bike’s skeleton, then certainly the powertrain equates to its muscle. By powertrain, we reference the transmission, primary drive and, of course, the engine. In terms of our Brass Balls Bobber giveaway bike, that ensemble includes one of Baker Drivetrain’s all-new Powerbox 6-speed transmissions, a Tauer Machine primary and clutch assembly, and one of Crazy Horse Motorcycles’ 100-cubic-inch engines. Sturgis Pics from Dar HoldsworthThursday, August 21st, 2008
Just in from Da Boss, Dar Holdsworth. He entered the World Championships and his Military Bobber came back with an outstanding 3rd place. A few months earlier it won the Military Bike Build-Off in Branson, Missouri. The military Digger represents the arm services of America. It’s painted army green with splashes of vivid colors. It embodies an old skool look with state-of-the-art features. The motorbike is built with some cutting edge components from Metzeler tires to Crime Scene lights and air cleaner. A unique piece of the build is an engine from Crazy Horse, which is called a V-Plus engine. The bike not only looks good, but with the V-Plus it runs like a scalded cat. He also attended the Bikernet Brouhaha! show and came back with a number of snaps from the event. Checkout his Sturgis pictures and Bobber by clicking here.
