This wouldn't be the same idiot who told somebody not to buy a Suzuki
GS500 twin because you had to remove the cams every time you needed to
adjust the valves, would it?
And who said exactly the same thing to someone else about a Honda CB750?

abusive again and they've cancelling his posts. Tut, tut. Looks like
another nym will soon be canned :-)

Oh, please tell me you're kidding - although I have this suspicion that no,
you're really not. When I first read the original post here, I do have to admit
that the first thing that went through my head was "my God, that sounds exactly
like..."
I guess I should learn to trust my intuition more, eh?
