    (Presuming that this was done relativily recently, and not about
    three years ago to a different bird who you have since dumped...)

    As the man from VW said, people buy bhp and drive torque.

    Triumph are certainly trying to get some of that. They've got quite a lot
    of Triumph branded accessories, clothing and miscellany.

    It's physically big, too: made to be looked at. Whereas the 'busa engine
    is compact, so you could pretty much fit it to anything.

    I could see it being of interest in a sort-of mini hot-rod, with the
    engine sticking up through the bonnet. Does anyone make something like
    that?

  15. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember "Verdigris"
    Like this, you mean?...

    It says .... 140bhp and 147ft/lbs, but that is a standard "soft" state
    of tune.

    Well, for the original, sure. But I was wondering if someone did a
    three-quarter scale kit. The Rocket engine would look OK in something
    like that.

    However, developing a new kit-car just so that there's something to use
    the Rocket engine in would be a bit silly.
