From the Animated Engines web site: " The four stroke engine was first
demonstrated by Nikolaus Otto in 1876, hence it is also known as the
Otto cycle. "

To the mythical Ngauladrfithagirth tribe in the highlands of PNG, the
word 'otto' means 'three and a half and a tiny bit extra'.

 

And probably been bastardised as words are from Otto cycle to Auto cycle

 

Ducati riders are two strokers

 

Auto is probably a distinction from manual, ie pedal power. If you want
to instantly associate any use of the words manual or automatic directly
with the type of gearbox, that's your prerogative.

Maybe Jordan, the word automatic, didn't relate to anything to do with
motors or gearboxes as some of these here seem to think
You were being silly and I threw in another one changing Otto to Auto
Maybe from Otto mobile vehicle, to Auto mobile vehicle
You know the way that some of these New South Wailians speak
then all of a sudden we have gearboxes thrown into the fray.
Automatic probably wasn't brought into the motor industry till years later

 

Wrong...

 

How do you come to that decision>>?
Are you a Ducati rider?

 

why do you ask ?

 

Because you have stated I am wrong and you seem to be coming to the defence
of the Ducati Riders

 

No I just stated you are wrong , not an uncommon thing for you at times.

 

Otto was given that name because he was born with 8 arms. In order
not to be octracised at school, they cut off the 6 spare arms just
after birth.

 

That is a normal type reply from a Ducati rider
Can't you do any better
after all, it is only Tuesday

 

Would they have been called the swinging arms ?

 

wrong again

possibly but that would indicate value in your opinion
and there isn't

 

My point is that you do not have a sufficient answer

 

The answer is adequate , your comprehension is lacking .

 

I thought it was a battle of twits..

Damnit Marty I almost spat coffee on the laptop.

 

Chuckle...

Very good.
