Haha, you made me spit lemonade all over my monitor !!!!!!!

No, thats the ones that you just suck on and liquid comes out, and when you stop sucking, the liquid stops, kinda like a lactating Mum.

Q1 -- 250cc
Q3 -- Fuel Injection
Q8 -- Honda
Q9 -- BMW
Q10 -- Yamaha (although I believe Harley Davidson pioneered it!)
Q14 -- Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber
Q15 -- V-Max

Q17 -- 250
Q18 -- two
Q19 -- Honda NS400R

And that's all I know without cheating (google or looking at others answers!).

I never said anything about google in the rules !!, so its not cheating. If you want, we can restart, with google being declared as an acceptable helper.

Hmmm, my research shows the madura as a 700cc, and a 1200cc, but not a 1400 variant, so at this point it looks at though Sppedmedic wins the trophy !!!!!!!. I will confirm this tomorrow, after I make triple sure thats the case.

**kro** · 31st January 2006, 21:33

Was this too hard or too easy?, I could prolly put another one togther, with another small prize pool, but it wont be for another day or two, as I am working on the old 82 DR250 tomorrow night...... the old girl needs a new cam chain, and some new filter oil.

Bloody good stab, if you had typed Cavalcade, you'd be the big lotto winner, very nice effort there.

Frosty was on th pace big time too.

Sure not an easy way to do a quiz were are all off posting and not seeing others do it at the same time. I reckon I didn't do too bad on my first unaided answers where I just skipped th eones I wasn't sure of.
