Dan I see that and it's listed with dry sumps...a factor in negotiating price......The 2 brothers tn Buffalo who formerly owned ."War Dancer" & "Smokin' Joe" would have all the riggin answers I don't think it's been updated since then.

Skippy..i was talking too fast probably when we spoke. Ultimate Warrior is the other Apahe. Tony Ferrantino owner. Mike his brother owned War Dancer. Smokin Joe was a 43 Scarab triple.

So are wet sumps just as reliable, but have more parasitic drag ?? Any major functional differences ???

I'd take wets any day, drys are nice but it a number of my customers with drys needed rebuilds way quicker then the ones with wets. Wicked one loss 4 mph when he switched to transmissions from crash boxes so the wet drives are definitely slower. My buddy with War Hawk put over 400 hours on his wets before they needed work. Allez Vite is now running over 100 again as she now has dry drives.

Hey, My wife and I looked at Wicked Won this summer in Grand haven, It is a bad machine. I could not talk her into it. Too much full race cockpit. We need something a little more pleasure set up, like a back bench and regular bolsters. It does have a toilet which is a requirement !!!! His asking price was deffinitely reasonable for the equipment.
