The best thing is that the motor for this 500cc Bullet based vintage racer is being built by my terrific-madcap-engine-building-geniusFireball buddy Sumanth aka CHUMMA! You guys must have seen the Kneeslider article on the performance package for the 500 Bullet, called the Fireball, developed by the combined forces of Chumma and Tom Lyons, the learned sage of ACE Performance: http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2010/09/09/ace-fireball-535-royal-enfield-high-performance-kit/ The Badger racer project is a bike that you can ride on the street, ride hundreds of miles to the racetrack, race it and ride it back home. Quite a project! Please support it as much as you can, you will be acknowledged in the end credits in the DVD movie on the whole story! Comments07/24/2011 1:53pm
A fellow named, if I recall correctly, Steve Linsell, used to race a souped up Bullet, in VMCC meetings, during the mid / late seventies and early eighties, in England. He was quite successful, much to the annoyance of those who were racing Velcotte KSSes and Manx Nortons. Which reminds me of the fellow who rode a Norton engined Scott with the engine fitted horizontally at the bottom of the frame. Quite a sight to behold. 10/02/2011 2:30am
