Hulster 8 Valve – 2007 AMD World Champion

By Paul Crowe

Hulster 8 Valve by SE Service - 2007 AMD World Champion

Hulster 8 Valve by SE Service - 2007 AMD World ChampionSE Service of Sweden is the winner of the 2007 AMD World Championship in Sturgis, South Dakota. After taking 3rd place in 2006 they returned to take home the win. The Hulster 8 Valve, is a board tracker powered by a custom engine using a knucklehead bottom end with custom built cylinders and heads. The cylinders are cast in bronze while the heads are aluminum. The valve assemblies are beautiful but even after looking at the photos and reading the brief description, I’m having a little problem figuring out exactly what’s going on. I’ll need a closer look to sort it all out.

Power is delivered through a Norton gearbox. There’s a chain driven generator coming off the rear wheel and as you would expect, workmanship overall is superb. I like the narrow knobby tires, too.

Beautiful bike. More photos below:

    What a beauty. The way it all sweeps forward is undeniably lovely.

    extremely nice work, especially cool are the throttle idler wheels and the valve train. You can see from their extra photos how it works:
    first exhaust rocker pushes down onto a secondary rocker which, together, directly acts on the right hand valve (think Honda RFVC). That secondary rocker pivots up onto a third rocker with its own pivot that pushes down on the left side valve. Easy, see?

    This is just amazing work and proves we need Summer Holiday in the US too.

    I saw pictures of this bike at its debut a few months ago — stunning. Simply stunning! The level of attention to detail is superb. But the thing I like best is the tall / narrow tires and the fact it is rideable in comparison to todays fat tire long bikes that lack functionality (and ridability). Hopefully riders and builders take note — 360mm rear tires are passe. It will be interesting to see what impact this bike will have…

    love the wheels they look like he went down to his local mountain bike shop and bought them there and then modded them to work for the project. Very cool

    I always favor custom bikes with unique engine/transmission fabrication over those that package off-the-shelf mills.

    Nice use of a Brooks B72 saddle, BTW.

    Sure, custom bikes with short front ends and narrow tires look absolutely great, but the riding position and the minimal suspension travel probably makes them no more ridable than a chopper with long forks and a ridiculous rear tire. Over here I see a lot of Swedes actually riding the latter types – and for long distances too – so it appears they aren’t as impossible for regular use as some prefer to think.

    I like it very much when a truly custom bike and engine are produced anywhere. This should be an inspiration to the traditional American theme of the same old chopper with a new tank and paint scheme that we over indulge at times.
