Why? Because they deleted the starting crank that year?

Or because that was the last year they offered hitching points for
the horse in front?    :)


Sorry, Jeffrey, couldn't resist a friendly tweak...

Splitties have great points, and I'd never cut them down in all seriousness.
Personally, I like driver's and passengers' windows that roll down, and
rear wheels that stay vertical regardless of load. I DON'T like having to
have a special (busmount) engine case, and not being able to mount many
of the aftermarket oil coolers/filters because the engine hanger gets in
the way.

You pays your money and you takes your choice...

BTW, you forgot "Economically stable".

Peace and love, bro.
