We’re hot after another record and interest is high. Hell, we haven’t peeled all the salt off the Salt Shaker and already the pressure was on to return to the salt and make our own title: The World’s Fastest Panhead. Berry Wardlaw, the mastermind behind the Panhead Powerplant designed the new engine before we paid for our 2006 Bonneville hotel room. Chris Kallas, the 5- Ball team concept designer, assigned the name before we had a chassis manufacturer lined up. It was destined to be the Assalt Weapan and you’ll see the progression of illustrations below.

That’s not all. We now have the parts to piece together a Bonneville 45-inch flathead attempt with a K-model top end and original racing cams. Departure Bike Works is rebuilding the engine and transmission while building a bike for a Discovery Build-Off. The Bonne Belle may also see the flats this year.

Here’s the growing list of top notch sponsors already on board. We welcome and appreciate all the help and support. Even Wolfgang Publications stepped up and offered to publish a book on the Bikernet 2007 Effort. All the articles published on Bikernet will also see the book stores through Wolfgang and Tim Remus.
