Big Twins in a new Format
I have to admit, it’s taking a bit of adjusting to say “i’d possibly build something like a sport bike” especially with our history here at Guilty of building rigids only. And with my personal experience, there is something about the look and feel of a v-twin in a rigid frame. So when we saw this frame (War Horse) from Big Twin Racers and started seeing reviews and comments on other sites we had to take a serious look at our prejudices and view of the industry. 
Granted, the trends we’re seeing now are towards baggers, bobbers, old school street platform racers (see our own Dais’d bike) and combined off-road tires, composites etc. So to see this new and yet untried (by that we mean with ton’s of miles on it) we’re still holding our breath on the outcome…but we wish them the best and would love to hear from those that have taken the plunge with this format….for us, we’ll take the “wait and see” approach.
Here is some materials we’ve gotten from his promotion machine…..The design of the BTR War Horse is taking the kit bike industry in a new direction. Never before has there ever been a more sport oriented big twin available to the public. With it’s race inspired geometry, aggressive riding style and top shelf components……… Curt Winter, owner and designer of the Big Twin Racer, has been building sport oriented bikes for the past ten years……… Designed from the ground up, starting with a perimeter style tube frame, single shock rear suspension…… strategically assembled to give the rider a sensation that is second to none. The idea was to take a big American V-twin and stuff it into a sport bike chassis, use quality suspension components, powerful brakes and an aggressive riding style……Critical components such as oil tank and gas tank are rubber mounted so that over time vibration won’t be a problem.
