I was always asked why I own a 12r Ninja. The thought process is the bike has way too much power and goes way to fast to handle. I owned it for 6 years and never wrecked it or got a ticket.

It will only go as fast as you let it :wink:

I used to do that when I started racing BITD. My brother in law and I built his Clod up with some of the older sprint car motors (twin Twister 13X3's), re-geared them, added weights, locked the axles and used to pull kids around in the parking lots...it was a blast.

I saw a website not long ago, can't remember how I found it. But this guy used his clod to pull a float in his towns parade. He stored batteries under the float and ran the clod for a long time. I'll have to see if I can find that. He also had a pic of the clod pulling a kid in a wagon. I don't know remember why the 4th of July is sticking in my head. Might of had something to do with that.

Found it. That was easy.
the wagon had a bear in it, not a kid.
