I am wondering if anyone here has by chance seen or knows where it is. Multiple speed records,had rings, engine built by byron hines, was actually I think around 1400 w/ nitrous. Unique paint scheme, tan back with hillbilly scenes all over it. All chromed, stretched, and FAST. Was mostly worked at Pace Kawasaki, back in the late 70-early 80's.Was a VERY COOL BIKE. Last known whereabouts was St.Louis area. I know it's a shot in the dark, but who knows, stranger things have happened.

Welcome. Who was your dad?

Might want to look through this thread and see if your dad's old bike is pictured.

Send a P.M. to one of the old heads on this site.

My dad was Ernie Stagner, he used to run a lot around Il, and Kentucky, went to Bowling green nationals a few times. Did very well for someone paying his own way. Won a lot, broke a lot of track records, and national records for B- modified. He ran a lot of street racing as well around st louis. The only things keeping bike street legal were the lights and the kick start. You had to be a serious hoss to kick it, it had so much compression it was more likely to kick you.
