Sydney Dragway Bike Nights

Sydney Dragway Bike Nights have helped us have the perfect start to the year. The summer heat and bright golden sun is back here in Sydney. So we’re making the most of it, getting out for Sunday rides and getting back to the race track.

Speed Week 2021

On the 16th March our race team landed back in Sydney after traveling to Lake Gairdner for DLRA Speed Week 2021. It was a challenging journey this year with more aspects to coordinate, the uncertainty of travel and of course COVID-19. Then to whack a cherry on top there’s always the weather, which only just passed the bar needed for racing on the lake.

LSR1 MKII Track Test at Sydney Dragway

On Monday 8 February 2021 Elliott Motorcycles completed a track test on our LSR1 MKII race bike at Sydney Dragway. All going well, our LSR1 MKII race bike would become the first Harley-Davidson® motorcycle in the world to run an Emtron engine management system.

Macarthur Flat Track 2020

2020 was a year where racing events were few and far between. However, I did manage to get some track time in during September at Macarthur Flat Track in Sydney’s southwest.

LSR1 MKII Race Bike Development

While racing at Lake Gairdner in 2018 it became clear that there was opportunity to develop our land speed race bike further. So, within 6 months of returning home I had stripped the bike and started working on a redesign.

I’ve been wanting to get to a Dust Hustle for a while now. When everyone you talk to about Dust Hustle says it’s an awesome event, you know it’ll be well worth the drive to get there.

Nitro Thunder 2019

Nothing can hold back the adrenaline when you’re waiting on the starting line at Sydney Dragway. Especially when you’re sitting on a motorcycle capable of reaching the quarter mile in less than 10 seconds.

Aus Hooligan X 2018

When Australian stunt legend Dean Ross announced Aus Hooligan X at Bairnsdale Moto Plex on 4 November 2018 I got excited and signed up straight away, there was no way I was going to miss it.

Elliott Motorcycles 2018 Hooligan Bike

Hooligan Race Bike Build

I’ve always wanted to have a go at flat track racing and with it being big in the States at the moment it’s never been more front of mind. All I needed next was a bike, but not just any bike. It had to look the part and invoke the same feelings I get when I look at the Flat Trackers racing in the US.

The pressure was on. Corey left Bacchus Marsh with his race bike and all his gear loaded in the trailer with one vital thing missing, the 160CI S&S pro stock engine.

Our 2018 Land Speed Motorcycle

I started work on our first race bike three months before DLRA Speed Week 2018. It’s an event that land speed racers spend all year preparing for. I knew we were going to be up against it from day one, but we decided we were going to be there.
