...but I am
hacking-up a Honda. Actually, I'm kinda going the other direction power and performance-wise. Just building a low-maintenance trailbike to take on the road with me as soon as I'm finished building
my motorhome. Found this forum a while ago and was sure I'd find it useful somehow/someday. Already got a ton of great info about chopping up these bikes, so thanks for all the help.

A Deuce as a motorhome... I like it. I have always thought that they're bad-ass vehicles with their "multi-fuel" capability to run on almost anything. I remember when I was in the military and a buddy bought one from the base and we were driving around and he put diesel in it. A couple days later we were driving around and he pulled over and filled it with gas and I was like "what the fuck are you doing?!?! you can't put gasoline in a diesel engine!!" That was when he explained the multifuel capability and he even ran it off of hydraulic fluid once! Pretty sweet design!

Those military 6x6's have given me a chub since First Blood when John Rambo drove one over the cop cars...I've always dug them. I like being married so I'm not going to follow the build tread but if tides turn and I end up single expext a 6x6 at Hoonfest.

Ah, thanks guys. Yeah, the multifuel engines are pretty neat. I've actually got a brand new 5-ton multifuel engine that I'm swapping into my rig. It's basically the same engine as the 2.5-ton multifuel, but it's modified/tuned to make a little more power. If you want to read more about how these multifuel engines work,
