I bet that the belt holds up better than the timing chain on a POS Gallero. > I think I'll wait for the de-tuned version. I am a big fan of the > styling though. Detune? DETUNE? That's like detuning an Audi A8 or a FJR1200...down right dumb. 8^p I would suggest rather that one learns to develop a MATURE and RESPOSIBLE throttle hand, anyway the damn cops will be following you everywhere drooling on themselves just looking at the bike.

But it really is great as a nekkid standard, just as-is. Bob M.

You wanna 'splain that in a bit more detail? Narrow-angle V-6s have been used successfully in a number of examples, the obvious one being Volkswagen's VR6 as noted in the article. And it's probably better to think of this sort of thing as a straight-6 squeezed down to a more reasonably-sized package. Not that I wanna work on the thing myself, but like they said - it oughta be ungodly smooth, with plenty of power, and not nearly as wide as trying to stick a regular straight-6 into a bike frame.
