[flynrider]

So now we need to take the bore and stroke and run some numbers...

73.5 x 67.2

I came up with 1140.496

What do all those dots mean anyway? They are in some of his other posts too.

I don't know about this particular case, but for me they would represent what I wished that I had said under certain circumstances rather than what I actually had said, lol. Too bad such an option doesn't exist in actual conversation

In other words: ..... = nothing (or better left unsaid).

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought. Sort of signifies speechless.

I'm guessing he posted something and then tried to delete his comments. Since we can't delete posts on this forum, overwriting unwanted text with .... does the job.

Ok, I put in a couple requests for bids to get decals for this that aren't half-a**ed to put in the tens place, but in the meantime I got a couple fully half-a**ed mailbox almost fit numbers. Anybody have a preference as to white versus gold numbering?

For those that care and won't get a headache, the Formula is:
4 (cylinders) x PI (3.14159265359) x R x R (squared) x H
= 4 x 3.14159265359 x (73.5/2) x (73.5/2) x 67.2
= 1,140,496.151 cubic mm
= 69.597 cubic inches

So the model number is in CC (cubic centimeters) vs CM (cubic millimeters) instead of the specifications units of measure. They could have posted 7.35 and 6.72 cm respectively.

That results in
= 4 x 3.14159265359 x (7.35/2) x (7.35/2) x 6.72
= 1140.496151
= 1140 (rounded to nearest integer)

Even though it is a 1140, I alway thought it should have been named CB 1150 (pronounced CB eleven fifty), just like CB 750 of the old days....

[Verdecken_imp]

Yeah, they missed a good name there. Oh well. The bike still kicks butt.

Streetshark07,

You might as well add these too if you are intending to turn your CB into a rat bike: (It's hard to tell if you are serious about this...)
