FIRST FIVE-SECOND V-TWIN NITRO HARLEY? IN DEPTH FEATURE OF HISTORIC MUST-SEE SUPERCHARGED DRAG BIKES
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 12. 2019
- Two of the coolest, most unique motorcycles you will ever see are the hand made, supercharged Nitro Harley, “The Gunslinger” of Ohio’s Jason Pridemore and the marvel of engineering known as “The Beast” all the way from Sweden, ridden by Tommy Grimes of North Carolina. In this video we watch as Pridemore aims for history and world records, striving to be the first Nitro Harley racer in the five second zone at the biggest race of the year, the Man Cup Drag Bike Finals from South Georgia Motorsports Park. We pick up the action during Jason’s second-round bye run and follow him all the way to the final where he must face his future brother in law, Grimes. What a tough day for his sister Rachel Pridemore. We then go back to the pits where Jason gives us more inside information and cranks up the bike with Michael Balch, nitro tuning legend John Alewine and many others looking on.
We also address the remarkable v-twin five second run of Finland’s Jaska Salakari and explain how the traditional “Harley” five is different. Pridemore’s machine is a 45-degree motor with pushrods, aka traditional Harley architecture where Jaska has a different angle and overhead cams. Both are very impressive, but are in different categories.
Jay Turner and Tak Shigematsu are also picked by many to run the first Harley five. They both use Pro Chargers while Pridemore uses a screw blower. Let’s us know your thoughts on these amazing machines and who you think will be first.

I love the way Cycle Drag shows the rider as a person, not something to ignore as just a bump on a machine. These guys ride with the possibility of being maimed or killed. Please give them some love and respect. It's not just all about the bike.
Thanks for the video!!! Great work. 2yrs later and I'm still sitting on the edge of my seat watching. Peace and Blessings.
Both, Are Serious Motorcycles!!!!

Love that rumble and ground shake of a big fuel bike 👍✌️
I've always been an adrenaline junkie into racing!!! Thanks for putting out awesome videos Jason!!!👍😎

Awesome new found channel for me. I have been too top fuel NHRA and that is insane, but these Bikes take insane too a new level. Holy cow!!!!!
High-maintenance, expensive, not particularly useful and American.... but that's enough about my wife. I want one of these!
LOL!
LOL!!!
Lol
Truth!!!
haha
I saw Jason and his Bike at Thunder Valley (Bristol TN) and it's really a beautiful piece of mechanical engineering.
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?

Absolutely brilliant fantastic job amazingly fast & tuff awesome video love it cheers KC Tasmania Australia
Crazy, violent, and beautiful. Wow!
Amazing motorcycles ,a little subject talk about rod and gears at Harley, nice atmosphere and roaring powers, what more could you want of a good drag race video.
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
@@cycledrag - From Norway .
Awesome,crazy stuff !!!!!!
I saw the Gunslinger and met Jason at a race in Maryland. SUPER nice fella and yes, that bike is BITCHIN! Cant wait to see the first 5 second pass on a 45° V-Twin
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
@@cycledrag Carlisle Pa
WOn't happen, VROD 60 degree, chain driven will do it!! Oh, but hahts Porshe tech.... Harley should get SMARTER and make the inline 4.....Pride SUCKS
@@mikefarmer2121 true
Strong men of faith! My heart leapt when I heard that prayer, and I was praying right along with them myself! Prayer does work people, all you have to do is believe.
So cool , I love it Jack , badass
Great video. Many thanks. .....
Damn, you trivked me, i thought this video was of the first 5 second nitro harley. I was so excited 😆
What a beast. Gorgeous bike
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
The track was well oiled afterwards. Damn drippin' droopers !!
Great video. Thanks
Push rods are what make my lawnmower run so yes it's a big deal
Wow that is a Beast . Sure miss the Nitro Harley drag bike days . 1990's Vancouver island Nanaimo B.C. Top of Nicol st. H.A. Canadian Top fuel nitro Harley . That was a great time to be a mechanic . Robins top fuel bike was awesome . Nothing like the smell of nitro ........
Dude was off the throttle for 200 feet and still went 6.80 goddamn
The difference between a gunslinger and a beast? A gunslinger builds his own glory. As a master fabricator. And "youtube" mechanic. I've more respect for the man that's built it himself
How do you better that, both such high tech originals.
Love from Gold Coast Australia
Great on headphones
Its bout time some Harleys get Supercharged!!! still gotta get consistent to RULE FUEL!!!
Years ago, Harley drag bike did have superchargers....then they were outlawed....
@@dougankrum3328 I recall them being in NHRA for a while, I'm old....
"Win On Sunday, Sell On Monday" " ya you got one of them there 5 second V twin Nitro's?"
Really hot heat running through hoses exaust and every other conmponent
To see consistent 5 sec runs in the push rod Harley category, were gonna need a breakthru in head technology. The cubic inches are plenty to get the job done. The issue is moving all that nitro in and out of the motor. I think a conventional fueled Harley or one running a mix with methanol, turbo instead of a supercharger, would stand a better chance at consistent 5 sec runs over the nitro bikes. Back in the day they needed the nitro and the blower to go that fast. Today with methanol, turbo and some trick heads I see much more that can be accomplished. Maybe there needs to be a new class and some re-writing of what Top Fuel really means.
As long as it's nitro, that's all that matters.
@ 9:10 That throttle response is MIND blowing!!
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
@@cycledrag Hobbs New Mexico. Love the channel!
Awesome race and people👍
That’s incredible for a V twin when you think about it
spiderman has nothing to worry about and will sleep very well!
Fantastic achievement. Love the bike, BUT....tell me what part of it was made by HD.
Wow I hope Jesse sees this incredible!!!
I bet he will! Hopefully he comments!
well there goes my beer as I watch it fly out of my mouth. lol
Left and right skid to gain speed after finishing our bike
At 3:30 is how my dad's 74 superglide sounds when I idle it at about 1000rpms
What happened to the rigs where you used to lay down at the front?
Good to see the beast again
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
The uk
There are many comments about whether it's a Harley or not. But it's the same for any race car or bike. There are classes for unmodified stock vehicles. But these are extremely modified for a reason
Love the channel. Not a Harley fan. Never was. Never will be. Kawy man myself
Best of luck Jason in 2020!
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
@@cycledrag Claveland,Ohio
G'day mate, watch the channel everyday awesome. Would you know is there any gunslinger merchandise available. I have looked on the net but to no luck. Be safe mate and cheers on any help you could provide.
Imo the Beast is probably the best sounding bike. It has a unique sound. It is crazy in person. Feels like an earthquake
Two very short exhaust pipes at the front of the engine, one pointed to the right, and one to the left, So all spectators on each side of the track get their fair share of the flames, the thunder, and the shock wave!
Jason-Lucky guy- Rachael is a beauty- I thought she was Laura Dern- who is also a beauty~
This is just as much a Harley as a NASCAR Chevy is a Chevy. Totally different planets
Where can I buy my "Cycle Drag" patch?
I sure hope so come on Harley
Jason built a mechanical master piece
WoW! A "Hardly" that ran for an entire five seconds without a breakdown! Miraculous!
This is SO FAR away from being a Harley its in different galaxy
@ DarylLect true🤣🤣🤣 I have a Softail Custom. The electronics are absolutely worthless on these Harley motorcycles. Mechanically they seem to be fairly decent though.
I like the gunslinger.
There are crazy people and then there are the people who race Nitro Harleys. Sweet mother of pearl!
I'm agnostic, but if I was gonna ride that thing, I'd be praying too -- praying that I didn't wet my pants before I even got staged.
Nice
This channel is so informative and important
..only took Harley 100 yrs. to catch-up. MY grandparents lived two miles from the Harley Factory in West Bend, Wisc. PEACE GRD
How about sticking that drone cam above the finish line..?..for sure it will complete the veiwing experience.
nice...
Pure power
For Example use super powred fluids cleaners for injectors for oil because its a long lasting super powered energy
Love it brothers and Sister!!!
Hare Krishna.
cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seismic shifts!
Nitro in the air....😁
I think Jason might be able to get that 5-second run if he would get him a lighter pilot for that bike, Jason's a big guy man he may have a hard time doing it but then again maybe not that's a powerful ass bike man at least 1300 horsepower
I have seen The Beast several times here in Sweden at Mantorp Park Raceway😉
Me too. And I saw Tommy do 6.19 at Tierp arena in 2019. Per Bengtsson started racing the Beast in 1991 btw. Congratulations to the team! And many thanks to CycleDrag for the video, as I was disappointed that there was no live webcam on that monday. @Håkan: Good to read your message, hope to meet you in Mantorp one day again.
@@nederpiet Nice to hear from you🙂
Skid off left and right to gain speed with control
Remember the trick is not to never think evil. Think good like the garden of Eden. Clean fix properly use corrects tools etc for all sorts of direction
Have brakes adjusted heavy duty for gentle braking system
6:88 isn’t in the same bracket as a 5:999 which is the slowest pass of the 5 second bracket, so it’s a 6 second bike
Awesome Harley Davidson awesome gunslinger can't get any better than this these guys definitely no what they are doing o yeah !
Thanks for watching! Where are you watching from?
@@cycledrag Arkansas home of the bikes blues and BBQ o yeah
Jason pride more will win!
I love that prayer amen
To keep gathering speed
Keep up with it
Haha! At 0:33 it sounds axactly as my briggs & stratton lawnmover..
your B&S has only one Cyl !!!! lol
I'd rather ride across America, but they sure are having fun.
Gunslinger is badass
Strong mechanics
Jack you saying the Nitro harleys are traditional harley arcitecture.. there aint much traditional harley in a nitro harley lol except the pushrods and the angle :P
How much bhphas those incredible beasts have
That's the way I ride
I From Indonesia🤙🇮🇩
You know why Indonesians dont race on prepped tracks?
ANSWER: Because the staging area would be full of flip flops and sandals.😂😂😂
Glad you like racing, Fito. Enjoy and be safe!
Yes
Pick also smoke through system ALSO to get full power of speed
Its awesome to hear someone praying and mentioning Jesus ! ! !What is that pipe on the right hand side , right in front of his leg. I'm thinking exhaust pipe . Just never seen one coming out there.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Yes, as you can imagine, packaging is very tight, especially with the screw type supercharger and it's necessary add-ons. What you saw was the rear cylinders' exhaust pipe on the left side.
Because its very cold
I REMEMBER JOE SMITHS DOUBLE ENGINE HARLEY..AND RUSS COLLINS TRIPLE ENGINE HONDA. THOSE RACES AT ENGLISHTOWN WERE AMAZING...THEY WERE PULLIN 7s AND WE THOUGHT THAT WAS INSANE...THEN OFF TO THE BAR FOR BEER AND PIZZA. WHEN AMERICA WAS DECENT
Gunslinger Go..!!!!
Eat'um up Jason, Oh the smell of NITRO in the morning
gunslinger baby
One thing at a time. Make one change. One pass. If it goes quicker. Make another pass without changing anything to see if it was a good change. Record everything.
Curious to what each bike cost to put The Gunslinger and The Beast together?.
these motors are an air compressor motor. I've wrenched on HD for over 20 yrs.. hard to get those engines to turn the RPM they need to make that power. its all on the reciprocating and linear... first 5 sec will be late next yr IF we get a full season
Would have beenice to have actually seen the times at the end.
75 90 and 101 pure power plus
Seen the beast many times at the pod . PS are your stickers available in the uk ?
Tigger2 I will bring some to Santa Pod
