John Britten could. I can't because I am a certified window licker. How about yourself?

Copyright / patent / trademark laws I'd imagine would prevent me making one I'd suggest.

I could have a go at my own version but it would be made of wood and would probably fall over. But WAIT! I have made my version ...

You want to know why I can't make a V1000?

Because you touch yourself at night.

No. I own a Suzuki. I bought a Honda decal for the wooden bike though. (because at the time I was having a sexuality crisis and owned a Honda).

Britten......meh, that's so 19 ..............

If I'm building one it will be a lot better that that old thing!

And it won't have any darn pink on it bawahahahahahahaah



MAkes you wonder if he was still alive what would he be working on now? Probably not a bike - from what I read/hear he often tired of a project once it was done and went off onto another interesting tangent.

Laziness.

I prefer to let a large team of japanese fells do all the hard work, so I can spend my time riding their creations and drinking whiskey

Well if I did, I'd make a 2-stroke version so it would sound good & pull better wheelies.

Mate - I'll be honest .. I can't ... if it plugs together and requires no cutting and fitting then I can build it ... if I need to use any sort of cutting tool (apart from a chainsaw) and cut stuff to fit - then I'm fucked ... I can't even cut a straight line with my skillsaw (a mis-named piece of equipment ...)

Show me a workshop and I can tell you what most things do and how they work .. but just don't ask me to touch making tools 'cause I'll probably fuck it up ... (oh, I can change the oil, do plugs and I have rebuilt small engines .. but that is not designing and building them)

So as far as designing something awesome like a Britten 1000 -- No Chance !!! (Unfortunately .. 'cause I do wish I was a bit more technically skilled.)

But ask for 10,000 words of an academic journal article - the only question is when do you want it by?

For making those you need a mummy and a daddy. Or at the very least an eggy and a wiggly-squiggly thingy that manage to hook up...

I can't because I'm a useless sack of poo.

I prefer to take things other people have made, have a ham fisted attempt at modifying them and fail dismally, then throw them unfinished in the corner of the shed.

Because I don't have an army of servants working for me day and night for little or no pay.
