Great pix. Anyone understand why guys would kick the rear wheel out on that one bike? I have only seen that done in the south. Just a style thing maybe. I would think the extra length would destabilize it somewhat.

The extended swing arm is to keep the front down when they drag race, from what I can tell.  I can ask the kid at work that ran his at Norwalk this weekend. 8.4 in the 1/4 if I remember correctly.  Mostly stock except for the longer swing arm. I tell him he is a nut. LOL

As your friend hopefully continues to age he will come to the realization that he is no longer indestructible.

I talked to him today, and yes it is to keep the front down. He said he went 157 on that bike once this year.  The local Drag strip ( Milan) is closed and for sale.

Oh yea

Relooking at the black Matador picture I just noticed the interior. I remember some ads from AMC why back when and they were offering some designers interior as an option. Wasn't very common as I recall and if this car has that original interior it could be a very unusual car in deed.
