    I thought so too until I was "put right". There was glaring and turning red and suppressed shouting involved.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

It wasn't even Guzzi's first 90 degree-twin, that being an air-cooled 500cc unit for the Fiat 500 automobile. Kudos to Greg Field (assisted by Moto Guzzi historian/M-E contributor, Ivar de Gier) for laying that tired old rumor to rest in his book Moto Guzzi Big Twins

    Dont want to put an SR20 or a CA18 in, boring Nissan motors. If I was going to do something like that I'd put the turbo 20V 4AGE in I had sitting at work a couple of weeks ago. Last car was a KP60 which I did a twin carb blow through turbo setup on with the mighty 5K in there.

    SR20s in anything are boring, they've been put in just about everything. Bike engine is different, hence the attraction

    I really think that you would need two motos to get going properly.
