www.popularmechanics.com Harley Davidson wants to take over Ducati. Ducati builds some very nice motorcycles, with that desmodromic valve system.

After all these years you STILL can't figure out how
to post a direct link, yet you continue to offer advice?

I can usually find what he means without much trouble.

When you're as old as JR you'll get the same deference

Unlike JR, I'm not a right-winger, and have accordingly
been capable at that and more since birth.

How ironic is that? Very, I'd say!

I fear for Ducati. BTW, I couldn't tell the difference between the 1960
Monza and Diana; the Diana had the desmo valves.

I think it's a good thing - if it happens. There so much disrespect on both sides for the other. Being in the same family will smooth thing over.

So here you are on auto.tech too.

You see the same people verywhere, and this confirms my opinion that
there are really only 120 people on Usenet.

As to Harley, they're made in York Pa, not far from here, and they have
tours. They're expensive considering most factory tours are free IME,
but I'd do it except they're only on weekdays iirc, and I'm only up
there on occasional weekends.
