Bonneville America Forums Forums General Motorcycle Forums Other Bikes v-twin

Going back to the heat issue, the horizontally opposed twin has to be one of the best cooling engines made for an air cooled engine.

Effect to handling, vertical twin and V twin both spin the same way and have basicly the same centrificial force so I really don't see how one would be any better than the other in that department. Now take the horizontally opposed twin or an inline engine like the rocket and those have the centrifical force trying to pull the bike to one side adversely effecting handling to a certain extent.
