        Thanks for the question. In stock form these bikes on average pull 55-57WHP. My GT is estimated at 85HP to the wheel with the motor setup running perfect & with the street tune. A few weeks ago I did a dyno run and found a severely leaking head gasket during the run and still pulled 70WHP. The smoker is faster than my 900CC fuel injected Ducati 907 that has put down 90whp but the Duc weighs a little more so on the street it's a different story. Building a GT 750 approaching 90+ HP on the street, they become unridable, peaky beasts. So taking them too far on the street is not much fun. My GT is also faster than my GS1000S Cooley. The motor is rebuilt & ported with copper head gasket, flat slide carbs, electronic ignition and some other stuff. Compression is broken in at 160 PSI on all the Cylinders.

          Rode Bad Buffalo 260 miles to Indy for the annual Rocker's Reunion event.





          Worked the VJMC tent with some nice bikes on display.


          It rained hard for 15 minutes and then cleared up!
