Mr. Oliver's commentary is brief but seems to reflect the findings of the .pdf file of the complete report. I could find no material on ABS or other electronic aids but admit not reading the entire thing, just the conclusions and a review of the protocol and the data tables.

To sum it up, we are our own worst enemy. Really.

[url=http://www.cycleworld.com/bicycle-mother-of-the-motorcycle-kevin-cameron-top-dead-center]"In the earliest years it was usually a progressive maker of bicycles who decided to branch out into motorcycle or auto making. People living in that time were getting used to revolutions – sailing ships giving way to steam, the expansion of railroad networks, machine tools, the driving of miles-long tunnels through solid rock."

Kevin Cameron provides another slightly quantish discussion of the appeal bicycles had for backyard mechanics and engineers over a century ago.

Bicycles were also the mother of the airplane (Wright Brothers) and were the first choice of imaginative dreamers Charles Lindbergh and James Doolittle, who all later stepped up to motorcycles and then aircraft, and finally ballistic missiles and rocketry through Robert Goddard and W. Von Braun.

It has fuel-injection throttle bodies that look like old Amal Monoblocks (sans cables), the best-looking exhaust system in years—with a catalytic converter hidden under the engine—and a nicely finned head and cylinders with a camouflaged radiator in front of them. Yet it looks clean and simple and works better than any British twin I’ve owned.

Egan is a bona fide old fart and he's giving the nod to the phony bits because, as he states later, he wants a bike he enjoys looking at when it's parked.

Funny thing is the bike, despite being a 1200 cc liquid-cooled beast, only makes 72 HP. To get the real power you've got to pony up a lot more dough for the Thruxton.

Good review, and a nice motorcycle, were my thoughts.

Hi all

I am a newbie in this forum but not new to riding. I would like to ask you all about your thoughts about the hatred of Japanese motorcycles in some circles here in the USA. Some are very vocal and demonstrative about such hatred.

I know people who don't like Japanese motorcycles at all and they didn't hesitate to let me know. They told me that as American I should buy American. For years, Japanese motorcycles were not on my list of consideration. But lately, I've read a little bit about motorcycle history in general, and such reading led me to consider Japanese motorcycles again.

I will share with you the reasons why Japanese motorcycles are back on my list, but first, I would like to hear from your thoughts before I share mines.

Making the best out of the cold front in Houston.. Its been a gorgeous weekend..

Took an early morning ride to Palm Beach this Sunday. The weather was finally... PERFECT in South Florida, sunny, slightly breeze and 72 degrees. After the long hot and humid summer, the best riding days are just ahead of us. The CB1100 is still as nice and reliable as the first day. Life is good!
