When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

the robin hood you are talking about is a rhm1000, i have one of the 7 i know they made (maybe more) mine had a 1275 lump in the back from a metro,
was a bit like driving a rotorvator, attacked it with a saw and an agle grinder now its got a fzr1000 in the front and mk scuttle bonnet and nose.

It's OK to be impressed by something impressive. Keep an open mind or end up like the Cornish County Councillors who said on banning the film
'The life of Brian'
' Of course we banned it. No we haven't seen it. We wouldn't wan't to go and see such blasphemous filth'

Do that with a bike engine and then you'd have awesome performance and a huge amount of luggage space where the engine would normally go.
