Russ, You could get you a couple of fly wheels off a Antique John Deere and put 
in 
your "liner on 2" and you might not have to even use out riggers. wmts

Russ, that is possible.  I suppose only the fellas that have run bikes
at Bonneville at 150 and 200 and over could comment on what kind of feel
they want in the bike at high speeds.  The greater the gyroscopic effect
of the wheels, I imagine, the heavier the feel of the steering.  Then
too, I gather that the motorcycle streamliner is a whole other animal
than any kind of conventional bike, as to high speed steering, stability
and control.  That's a good question.  Cheers Bill
