Motorcycle Wheelbase?
« on: March 25, 2010, 09:39:17 AM »
Can anyone help with a question about the maximum motorcycle wheelbase that anyone races with?  I think the most I have seen is 77" on a naked bike.

Thanks!
Dave

Are you talking about conventional or streamliner too?
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
