The radial engine powered bike is owned by Russell Ballentine, and was built by Jesse James of West Coast Choppers. The bike was debuted in the spring of 2006, soon after the fabrication was completed. The radial engine is a work of art. Manufactured by Rotec in Australia, the small radial is almost completely CNC machined which made modification easier. The front was fairly simple. A cover plate was machined to cover the hole where the prop shaft was removed. The rear was a little different. With the engine being fairly new to the market at the time and no manuals available, we had to careful mark and label all the parts to make sure everything went back together in the same order it came out.
