Hi guys I’m looking at fitting a flame thrower to my postie bike (no I'm not joking) and wondering if any one has any experience with these. Looking at purchasing this kit http://www.customflamethrowers.com/modules/news/ as it seems to be one of the few aussie made kits for a reasonable price. Any advice appreciated.

hahaha awesome, gotta get vids and pic's of this!
i cant imagine it would be hard to make yourself though - all it is basicly a sparkplug tapped into the exhaust which ignites unburnt fuel.

I find that hard to believe. I've heard about flame thrower kits that deactivate a cylinder or similar. Surely a modern cat won't let enough unburnt fuel through to allow a flame that big. I'm tempted to go out and get someone to rev my falcon with me holding a lighter to the zorst but I'm pretty sure didly squat would happen

bah, what a waste of $110 dollars.
Send your money to me instead, and ill send you a switch, some wire, a few weld on sockets, and a pretty looking tin box with $5 of electrics inside it. As a bonus ill include a bottle of JB to drown your sorrows after you have buyers remorse and realise you've been ripped. But seriously, its not hard to make your own flame thrower if you are so inclined. Whilst you save the money for the flamethrower try doing some keybangers, get your car (or bike) up to speed, then switch off the ignition, and pump the accelerator like a madman. after a few seconds turn the ignition back on. Note only works with carb cars... |

You can make one easy. It's basicly a sparkplug in the exhaust, but you hook a switch that cancels the spark to the engine (or a few cylinders) and sparks up the plug in the exhaust.

Making my car sound like a shotgun might come in handy when I'm stuck behind the little old lady that does 30 down my street. Will it work with EFI motors?
