I used to be playswithnitro but; it happens...
Aussie GPz1100 dragbike was created by Nitro Mick
G'day,
As rescued, it was wearing J-model CV carbs and a 190 rear tyre on the stock rim.
Replaced by a rack of RS38s and an Avon RoadRider 130/80-18. ALso fitted a set of Dyna coils.
Waiting for clutch lockup to arrive as well as new plates and springs. Have dyno time organised with Sydney Dyno at Fountaindale to dial-in the carbs and sort out the exhaust.
Apparently it's 1170cc buit will wait till i lift the head and measure it myself.
More in Used & Classic Bike Enthusiast #5 on sale all over Australia now.
Will update as things happen.
Launch pic is from only outing so far. Clutch went missing in action but still ran just over 100mph on two passes.

Welcome Mick. If I could relocate anywhere I always dreamed of Sunny Australia. Down by Surfers paradise.
Glad you know what Nitro Harley is all about :woohoo: :woohoo:
Nitro Methane engine racing is the 8th wonder of the world!!!
Nitro defies the laws of physics
Good Luck with all your ventures.
Find me an airconditioned apartment for 1 above a big garage. I'll load up everything in a container and float down under.
How is cost of living? With American dollars?
