Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

So, someone just took this bigass gear and chucked it in the rubbish? Considering there hasn't been any heavy industry in the US since the MBA's took over, it has to have some historic significance.

Wow, talk about flywheel effect. That is, if you can even get it spinning.

Eeh! Those two "agricultural" motorcycle brands, Harley-Davidson AND Moto Guzzi, have been usin' flywheels just like THAT inside their V-Twins for YEARS now, and I hear they haven't had any problems at all!!!


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
