Does it?
It's a different colour to yesterday's Yamaha and last week's Kawasaki I suppose......
I wonder what colour the new angular looking with a funky swingarm and double muffler under the tailpiece
Suzuki will be....

double muffler under the tailpiece

I'm sure I could detect a touch of cynicism in there somewhere Clem.

all is well except the tail and i don't mean under seat pipes. personally i
think under seat pipes are great. makes the bike look neat & tidy. was
hoping for a v4 though. can't wait for the naked version of the sp2! hang
on.. that's not out till 05. i think that one will sport under seat pipes
too

 

A V-4 would never be called CB thats reserved for inline Hondas if you
discount the singles. V-4s are VF whatevers.

Forward?
He said in a row. That would suggest at right angles to the frame.

Theo

 

yeah, but prior to the official release, its exact desgination was still
unknown.

 

A row implies a line running through at least 2 objects. A single point is
_not_ enough to define a line in any space with 2 or more dimensions in
other words ;-)

We were talking about a single cylinder engine in a motorcycle which
has spatial dimensions. Unlike a point.

A single 'in line' would be as in Zebee's 250 BMW. 'In a row' would be
at right angles to that, with the crankshaft across the frame.

What was the point again?

Back when it was only used on the tame bikes I thought it stood for "Commuter Bike".....
Clem

 

So... you are really saying that single cylinder motorcycles are pointless
*smile*

I can't really agree with that... I would say longitudinally mounted or
mounted across the frame.

The point of all the meanings below is they all have more than _1_ thing

row
// noun
1. a number of persons or things arranged in a line, especially a straight
line.
2. a line of adjacent seats facing the same way, as in a theatre.
3. a street, especially a narrow one, formed by two continuous lines of
buildings.
4. Music tone row. [Middle English, from Old English raw]

Unless they're desirable singles, like BSA's, Velocette 500's, or
Cameron Diaz.

You're going on about that point again. How can you have a 'point of
all' if a point is a singularity?

Theo

 

So basically the CB250RS is a point - not a single?
or a pointless??

I'd skip round the BSAs and Velos......this lady does interest me.

I have seen pictures of her, and, from what I remember, she seems
remarkably well formed, including her nose.

Why, one does have to wonder, did she end up with the name Cameron?

surely a singularity is by definition the 'point of all' *grin*

She saw a picture of you and decided the world needed balance?

She appears quite intelligent with a sense of humour.

 

Someone made a comment that he was disappointed that the new Honda CBR1000
whateverRRRRRRR(Fireblade replacement) was not a V4, I made the statement
that it was unlikely that it would be called a CBanything if it was a V4 as
Honda CBwhatevers are all inline engines, excepting the singles (how can a
single be inline if it has nothing to line up with). And then as usual here
the thread just went wherever it went.

But are the CB( whatever that stands for) motors called "inline" or
"transverse" motors?

There lies the problem

So you can have a transverse single but not an inline single ?
