2010 AMD World Championship of Custom Bike Building is in second placed Mark Daley of Thunderstruck Custom Bikes. His placing reflects the level of engineering involved in the building of the engine in his entry - Sniper. The Indian Powerplus motor used in the bike has had the inlet and outlet ports reversed, with the heads welded and machined to allow the correct sized valves to be operated by the reverse grind cam.
Pipes multi-piece bolted together, 4 outlets, Titanium ceramic coated. Carbs are Kehin FCR33, downdrafts from a Honda CBR 600. The carburators come out where the exhaust would normally be, and the exhaust where the carb would be - I flipped the valves in the cylinders, leaving their appearance normal, but working backwards; then I had to have a special cam ground to accommodate the modifications, and then had to make a special spigot-style manifold to hold the carbs.
The primary drive is our Thunderstruck 3 belt design with outer bearing support mid controls. Oil tanks, dual gas tanks, electrical, complete billet back bone, billet seat, rocker boxes, cam cover, bars, grips, foot controls, frame vents and sheetmetal work all by Thunderstruck.
