Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Recv'd the sad call from Stan earlier that Gerry passed away. I'm very saddened by this news as I'm sure anyone who knew Gerry is. For those that may not know, Gerry was a part of V8Choppers family and helped Stan with sales at all the rally events across the country. First class person all the way....

By way of what's put on these internet boards and the people I've met over the years at different rally events and get togethers, it seems there's many reasons and motivating factors. Although my reasons are shared by some, most seem to have V8's for reasons different than mine and visa versa. I gue...

Thats some funny shit Wildman! You gonna share it with the Brothers over on the other site? :twisted: There is someone waiting there with their finger on the "delete thread" button right now just in case They sure as shit don't have their finger on the "move to Off-Topic" button...

Welcome Brad. Daytona in early March or East Meets West in Oklahoma the end of May are great ones to meet everyone. Hope to see you there...

Bill, Jimbo owned a really nice big block Kannon, a Boss Hoss (small block) and a sweet V8Chopper he bought from David in Daytona. He also had a V8 trike that was custom made, a 750 hp Chevy Silverado, etc. Definitely a Brit with a real passion for American iron. You're also right about "one of...

Steve,

I hope all is ok there. I sent him an email and didn't hear either. Unlike him. I know he was crazy busy with work related stuff but he would find time to call me and yakkity yak. If you do hear, please tell him to get in touch and I'll do the same. Thanks,

Elliot

Anybody hear from Jimbo lately? Nice looking Choppa there. http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq135/V8BikeRiders/mini-V8Chopper2.jpg?t=1262965302 Last I talked to Jimbo was a number of months ago. He had sold his chopper because he was so busy with work and the weather was so lousy, he wasn't able ...

Hey Kidd,

Congrats on the chopper

Elliot

Having seen some mock ups of this trike including body shell, it is going to be a really cool unveiling and knock the socks off anyone inclinded toward a 3 wheeler. This doesn't mitigate the fact that V8Choppers will still be putting those other very cool trikes out there. All models are awesome wit...

Bill, At first, my disappointment with the numbers was based on my doing some of those Daytona style dyno runs on those portable trailer dynos and on the bike instead of the trike. I always figured it was Nesco's fault because that was the only thing between GM's claim and the numbers I was seeing. ...

Bill, I was highly suspicious because of what I had seen and heard at the track but then when I bought my '57 Chevy trike with the 502 and nitrous, it just seemed to under perform. I ended up going to two quality speed shops in Ft. Myers, one of which had been modifying new Corvette's for me for yea...

Elvis, That sure brings back cool memories. I remember those turtles and thought then as now... WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH THIS GUY?! Those dudes could pop a finger off about as easy as a real hot knife through butter yes? The ones I used to come across down in the Glades were bad tempered devils too. I ...

Just another one of my many talents. I speak a foreign language and didn't even know it.

Yeah, just what I meant...you don't see pics and you get drunk!

Just signed up yesterday. Thought I would say hello to everyone. Hope to see those I met in Ok. last may. I have not seen Regis yet,but am happy to see Tom,Elliot,Dave and the others. Mike A Hi Mike and Welcome! Glad to see you here and will hopefully see you in Oklahoma this May. Seems like a bunc...

Olaf and K, You hit the nail on the head. It's hard to compare the excitement relative to the first V8 bike. I had a number of Boss Hoss bikes and trikes in addition to Big Red but there wasn't near the level of anticipation and excitement as that first bike. Luckily, I did experience the same await...

Shane, PERFECT! Thanks a bunch!


Elliot

Mike, Not trying to have the last word here but a few thoughts... Please don't give up the antics or crazy shit. These sites can be about a bunch of different things. I know some enjoy primarily for tech talk, some to learn, and others for the social aspects of staying connected to the V8 types and ...

Mike, Chris' always kind words were a reminder that I too would like to thank you for posting all those pics. It brought a big smile to my face quite a few times today. I'm looking forward to putting these under the microscope tomorrow. Perfect duty for these long cooold, winter days. Sure appreciat...

See here Joe, Wildman sticks his dick in the door every now and then, just like you and I would occasionally do in the old Yahoo days, ha ha! I'm on the verge of wondering; WTF! with all his PEACE/LOVE preaching but I won't. At least he and the other moderators here are kind enough and not so thin ...

Geez I hear you! I'm older than you and am tiring as well. Great to see you posting here. Still riding the Boss on trips in the summer but less exuberance and smaller testicles. Elliot..still crazy after all these years?...Joe Doc Joe, It is now that much closer to those good ol' Yahoo days many of...
