snip..... >>Dump that antiquated hermaphroditic malignancy 2.1 leaker and get a real motor,...snip... >>all those vanagone motahs are doddering old ladies with very little left to give...... only an aging group of enthusiasts fading into the sunset trying desperately to keep their dream on the road.

I resemble that remark.... am I right in getting the feeling you prefer Sooby-do.... or was I just subtlety reading that between the big fat lines?

>>Four cam, 3.3l, 240HP, 235lbs-ft torque

turns my crank just hearing it.... any more sweet push talk from satisfied users, with lots of hard riding miles under their higher revving, knock censored, non interference cranks?....

It has just taken me so long to get to know my own antiquated hermaphroditic malignancy.... I might have withdrawal trying to live without worrying about this leaker I have been so enjoying for 20 years.... I'm still seeking counsel from my passed air cooled abuses & withdrawal.... it's so strange...cause even they worked well and caused many memorable hippy dippy highs all thru the 60's & 80's for me.... I must need a new drug to mask this new problem, Plus it's a lot cheaper & less problems than buying, installing & learning another complex motor system.

doddering old Roberta with only a little left to give & hiding his leaky head in the sand, But somehow still foolishly happy kissing the sky and riding the wind, Far from the maddening crowd.

ps. enjoyed the Carl piece
