Anyone want a V8 ride-on mower?

I can't wait for all the FAIL videos when people try to do stunts with them.

Interesting non the less Ken what other people do for fun.

I have a Greenfield E2000, ride-on. Its power output is 22HP and does 13Kph flat to the board. It has ample power to be geared up for higher speed. Oh yes, after the big rains in January 2011 I bogged the mower twice. Even with the diff lock on. Had to get off and push

My Grandson has had a little motorcycle since he was 7. I clocked him at 44Kph. The motor is about 150cc. Its too small for an adult to ride.

So those V8s are very much under stressed. I'd like to try one out myself.
Awesome but not practical.

Cheers

A bit on the loony side......

Trapped and crushed to death under a small block Chev

Now, if it had two less wheels.............?

Not to mention the peril of having a come-together with the hills hoist.

That steering column is pretty much all that's there to arrest your forward motion.

Even IF ya had the bux .. what would you do with it ???
It would be a NO GO on anything but concrete or bitumen.
You can forget the road .. that only leaves a hugh expanse of concreted area !!!!
And I thort america was doing it tuff ??? Must be wrong if someone over there can have a business selling strap on small blocks !!

Jeff If there making them then there selling them.
Maybe the Jackass mob and Bam Margera would certainly put big orders in.

To be honest, the Donk needs to be mounted in a Go-Kart frame. Then it would look easier to drive and more fun

The Specs say:
Forward Speed at 5,000 RPM - 25 mph
Reverse - 5 mph

That's not much fun
