interesting idea...24 engine from chainsaws...there's probably 1000000000000000 horsepower

I am sorry to say.....I have spent more time with my hand on a chainsaw than a bike the last few years. An MS880 is the largest Stihl chainsaw right now....and it is around 8 HP. Most homeowner saws are less than 3 hp.....and most midsize professional saws are in the 4-6 HP range.

So a 24 chainsaw engines probably makes about 100 smokey horsepeower......and a lot of noise! Shocked

not to mention how would you like to start that sucker up everyday, pull starting 24 engines just to ride will get tiring in a hurry. Undecided
