When a car has a nitrous backfire, things can go from bad to flamingly awful in milliseconds. When a Harley has a nitrous backfire while running on a chassis dyno, the rider of the machine gets to see what a few tenths of a second on the face of the sun would feel like. This video looks to have been made at Harley dealer or shop event as there is a big crowd around to see this dude nearly set himself ablaze.
We are certainly not Harley experts, but the bike didn’t sound all that good before the dude riding it cranked the throttle wide open and fed it the happy gas. He claims it was a bad set of plugs that did him in. Well, it didn’t do him in, but certainly some portions of his beard and eyebrows.
