So get her one, too.

 

Won't somebody please think of the lawyers!

I'm still gutted about that whole thing.

 

What bhp and torque do they push out?

 

I've got **** all else to spend it on.

 

A bloke here's got a V-Rod (back in the States). He's been riding a
year. His V-Rod's got 1500 miles on it. I've never seen him wearing
anything other than H-D branded clothing.

Mine, too. Sounds a better idea than mine.

 

Many-many-lots.

 

From: http://www.triumph.co.uk/site/bikes/BikeSpec.cfm?BikeID=83

Maximum Power 142PS (140bhp) at 5,750 rpm
Maximum Torque 200Nm (147ft.lbf) at 2,500 rpm

Trouble is, the kit-car builders motor of choice is the 1300cc from
the Busa, which reliably knocks out, what, 160bhp, and is easily
tuned, etc.

140bhp from 2300cc is just not worth it, is it (for kit-car purposes)
- especially when you consider the weight of the Triumph engine.

 

I'm not sure about the bhp, but the torque is 2, counted in V-Rods...

 

it'd make a fairly good tractor engine, is what you're saying...

 

Did you misspell ditch?

 

I, er, um...

 

Blimey.

 

I just proposed sitting on top of a deserted cliff watching the sun go
down over the sea.

Silly girl even said yes.

 

Were you going to push her off if she said no?

 

BHP about the same as a litre sports bike. Torque, on the other hand,
is "****-loads".

 

You're not the first to suggest that.

 

Well, congratulations!
