[tgordon]

Maybe somebody accross the pond will get a chance at one of these, but I sure would like to get my grubby little fingers on one, even if for a couple miles.

100 hp @ 4200 rpm, interesting but it won't sound like a Harley! Maybe like an ole John deere???

 

[AMink]

I can't get the page to scroll. Are there any pictures of the bike? The pictures posted here are red "x"'s.

I want!!!! Possible bomb's??????

 

[Jong]

I was looking at them today at work. Great looking bike, and 144 ft/lbs or torque!!! Interesting engine design too... two connecting rods per cylinder with 2 crankshafts. Also the smallest CR diesel I have heard of. Very impressive!!!Oo. Oo. Oo.

 

[BTowler]

Next question, how much????? It sounds like you might have to be somewhere just shy of Jay Leno to afford it!

Good! Even more reason to buy one! (and I'm no John "Dear" fan either)

 

[Kennywould]

From what I read they are not making very many of them so they will probably be pricy! I will hang on to my FatBoy! It would be nice to make that HP though!

Neither am I hehehe!:-laf

 

[9 Lives]

I have info from a guy in ohio that puts diesel engines in custom bike frames. ALOT cheaper then those foreign bikes.

 

[tgordon]

Do tell 9 lives. I would like to get an air cooled diesel into a bike, but there are only 2 that I am aware of that even make an air cooled diesel, Deutz and I belive they are fairly large engines, and now this Neander company. I do see that they have 1,2, and 3 cylinder versions one could buy and was thinking about that possibility. I see no need to pay extra for the GPS etc they put in.

There is a company in California making single cylinder diesel dirt bikes for the military.

Shoot, the military has companies making just about anything you can think of for them. Thats one of the many benefits of joining... you get to play with all those toy's that us common folk know nothing about.

 

[BTowler]

They are supposed to be released for civilian use too.

 

[AMink]

This is the one I want.

 

[nickleinonen]

This is the one I want.

me too... i could drive that thing for free for life just by draining the fuel filters i throw out at work into an empty water bottle. . my shop wastes gallons of fuel a day. . from filter change outs to tanks being overfilled and having fuel come out the vent [the fuel nozzles at work put out 100 liters/6-7 seconds]

 

[BTowler]

This is the one I want.

That is a sad choice for the U. S. military! The one that was the test mule about two years ago was made by a company in California, had more horsepower, looked beefier, and had a true diesel engine, not a converted gas engine (history has shown that route does not work very well, think Cadillac)! Instead, our money is once again being sent overseas!!!! When will our government wake up?

 

[tgordon]

BTowler, they are the same bike. The company takes a Kawasaki chassis and drops the engine into it, the company is Hayes Diversified Technologies. They list the same military designation number, but in their specs there is a little discrepancy, 584 vs 611 cc.



HDT - Hayes Diversified Technologies - Information for MILITARY



Of course there is also a question when it comes to the milage also, one says 120, and the other says 96. The sad part is they a IDI and naturally aspirated.
