good one, but you seem to forget too quickly that lots of people used to cut inner tubes and use the band to keep brake levers and kick starters in the UP position...

but its ok, as i live in italy i can attest that this country in general and guzzis in particular work more or less like that :)

I once heard people would take the old KZ1000 heads and put them on the newer KZ1000 crank cases because one had a better drivetrain then the other... or was it the other way around? i cant remember but is this true?

I know I'll get yelled at for posting a Honda here, but... damn...



Buddy of mine in Texas has three CBXs, swears he's leaving me his early twin shock (though he'll probably outlive all of us). 6-into-1 Demon pipe, sounds like Wagnerian opera.

What made you know it was French? Was it the yellow brake calipers or the Renault? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
