Well, funny you bring up the Yamaha XS650 thing here, Ian.
I'm probably going to get crucified for saying this around here...BUT...I believe the Hinckley Bonnevilles ARE more related in both design concept and execution(I better watch sayin' THAT word now) to that Yamaha model than they are to the old pushrod Meriden Triumphs of yore.
(THERE, I said it....fire away, folks...but remember, I can usually hold up pretty well under fire around here!!!)
It's called "modernization". And what's more modern than a DOHC motor? HUH?!
(yep! the Old Guard isn't gonna like what I said here, but fellas....IT'S THE TRUTH and YOU KNOW IT!!!)
