    Dunno about the cams - could they be self adjusting valves with OHC?

    Apart from that - Such as? - and remember you are typing to a bloke who thinks a fuel gauge on a bike is over complication.

    Sorry - I live in the deep uncivilised South and knew about Victory bikes so thought EVERYBODY else knew about them too.

    Shit, did I come across as being sore? My reply was meant to be read as a sarcastic pistake - in fact, many of my replies to threads are meant to be read that way.

    No I hadnt heard of them, but then again I hadnt heard of Matchless either. I am a sponge - and KB is the polluted pond in which I am soaking.

    With you owning a bike with white-wall tyres and a screen I can understand WHY you think like this.

    Ya DID notice it was a piss-take, right...right?

    As a Harley Owner who also wears tassles I kinda thought EVERYBODY has to put up with flak regarding their choice of bike/style of bike/style or riding gear... am I right or what??

    Oh - your right... I do put up with it, I just dont 'get into it' - its a rule I have set for myself (after reading many threads where it occurs). Dont get me wrong, Im not offended.

    I am so glad we arent a couple... we dont seem to communicate very effectively

    A few pretty pictures here..

    Not too shabby in the cruiser looks department. The slime green catches your eye. Except that full dress...mini Kenworth? is it a bike? That one's hard on the eyes though.

    From what little you can tell by just looking at pictures, the build quality looks good.
    The new 2008 106 c. i. is 1731cc and the previous models were 1634cc. Should have some get up and go.
