Doh! :homer: Thanks! That would have distracted me for a while. Have fun shopping, AnUnknown1.
You know, it just occurred to me that 4 very small turbochargers with permanently lubed bearings and some creative ducting might be interesting...
I tried Googling it, but only got some rather alarming results in languages/mathematics I didn't understand...
Personally, Donald, I like the "lines" of yours more. The show bike looks nice, but it doesn't flow very well. Not to my middle-aged eyes, anyway....
Yep, I meant "gaffers". I'm not sure where I got "Galfer's" from, other than I had never heard of it before and the word was new to me. I was...

I have Dyna Beads in the VFR and the SV. I tried them out of plain old curiosity and convenience, figuring if they didn't work I would buy the...
I bough a Corbin for the SV some years ago (at least 6, I think...), and it did arrive when they said it would. The mounting bracket looked like...
My longest daily commute was 150 miles round trip (lasted about 1 year), and I primarily used the SV. The only thing I didn't like was riding when...
