The Dyno Doesn’t Lie…

If you haven’t seen it yet, you need to check out the latest story on us, CSC Motorcycles Introduces a More Manly Scooter, appearing in Barnett’s Magazine.  Barnett’s is a mega-Harley-Davidson dealer in El Paso, Texas (a great place, and my old stomping grounds).  Barnett’s has the largest selection of Harley-Davidsons in the world.  They’re so big they publish their own well-respected magazine, and it is a great one.   Here are a few selected quotes from the Barnett’s article on CSC motorcycles:

I caught a glimpse of this bike the other day and knew exactly what it was, a recreation of one of the more interesting small bikes from America’s past. Most remember Cushman, with its ‘Harley-esque’ styling. Well Mustang was its hopped up cousin, evidently banned from flat track racing many years ago because it was humbling some of its full grown rivals. Mustangs were minibike-looking vehicles with huge engines. They could hit 60 or 70 mph which given their size, made them a hoot to ride….

…For all those guys who secretly would like a scooter but wouldn’t touch a step-through with a ten foot pole, here’s how you can run to the store in style without ridicule.

And speaking of hop up activities, oh boy, do we have a story to tell you…

Thanks to wizardry of the boys up at Yuill Brothers R&D and their dynamometer, would you believe horsepower gains of 34% and torque gains of 24% over our original engine configuration, all gained with improved “streetability?”  Well, the dyno doesn’t lie…and they are sending me electronic versions of the dyno runs so I can post them here for you to see.  Stay tuned…
