V8 Superbike drag racing
The V8 engine has so much torque it burns out the entire length of the track.

Dang!
Wonder when that video was made; I heard them say something about it being 1 of only 2 v-8 powered bikes in the world, and there's quite a few these days.

I've only heard of the Boss Hoss, at least as far as production bikes go.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

I think it was back in the 70's there was a guy called The Michigan Madman. He had a V8 powered bike. He would go around dragstrips and do demo runs. He would come through the local dragsrip here once a year, it was a sight to see especially back in those days.

There are also choppers built with V8's.... called V8 choppers, as well as Boss Hoss.
