    I suspect our OP's sig will give you the confirmation you require and in the
    meantime I DEFINITELY claim a whoosh.

    Ow, I haven't got to look at his sig have I? I hate paying attention to
    peoples sigs, they are all full of vanity, do I have to? It's not
    really that important that you would make me do that would you?

    :)

    I recall a while back suggesting we had a PRO# list, for Push Rods Only,
    but gave up on that when I augmented my fleet of three push rod twins
    with the Z750

    IIRC it's a twin-spark as well.

    Well of course. It is a proper motorcycle engine, a V twin. Ok granted
    it isn't exactly air cooled by air assist with the smallest rad they
    could stuff between the forks but looking just like it is as near as it
    gets but it is a V Twin nonetheless.

    No, you stupid old **** - I mean two spark plugs per cylinder like what the
    VT500s were.

    Well of course, like I said. It's a bleedin' 'onda custom innit, they
    all do that sir. Well the older ones aimed at the cheap end merkin
    cruiser market did. I dunno about the newer aimed at a more
    international audience ones cos I can't bear to look at them long
    because the 'orrible abortion they made of the styling.

    Oh yes. The old '80s versions - like the VT1100C, f'rinstance - were the
    best looking customs ever.

    I'd be off the list anyway as my only V-twin has overhead cams.

    Heh:)

    I hate paying attention to
    Absolutely not. If you do, this type of conversation wouldn't last too lon
    and too few insults would be traded.

    It's not
    Seeing as it's you and you drive the mong van, no.

    Any room in it come BoSM night? :)

    So it would appear. Not that it's a Yam, that much was obvious, but the
    whooshing.

    Ok. I siad it was a Kwak which it plainly isn't and never was, then I
    reinforced the "fact" that it was a Kwak, which is plainly STILL isn't, or
    ever was, then I pointed out the writing on the sig, then.... ah work it out
    from there.

    How do we know you were being ironic rather than just wrong in both posts?
    And maybe my sense of humour is lacking today but I can't see the point
    of saying that a Yam is definitely a Kwak. So I'm still whooshed.
    On the other hand, jokes about Kwaks and Ducs might work better....

    Loads but as it is likely to be parked on my drive during that time I
    doubt it will be of much use to you. EOSM maybe.
