Is it this one? http://oxcartracing.org/page5.html

The bike currently holds 5+ production and modified partial streamlined records between 124 and 131 mph at Maxton, Loring and at the Ohio Mile.

The miles on the race motor is unknown but it is very strong. The head was done by Fast by Gast and the cam are by WebCam I believe. Compression is stock. The flywheel is lightened, carbs jetted and exhaust gutted. The chassis/suspension is stock with the exception of clip-ons, a metal chain guard and MPS tether kill switch.
The stock dyno graph I have shows the 500 making about 54hp. I've seen it quoted as 59.1 elsewhere.
