Not a thumper, so it can't be this: how many cylinders & from what? Total cc? I've posted this on the board before so there are probably clues around.

A bumper thumper stumper? Hmm. What could it be?

I note that the proper and fair business, relating to the successful conquest of this Quiz, hasn't been concluded yet. :!:

Ah yes. The Swedish Chef translator. That takes me back.

Important lingo for Erin Rally visitors, especially Scottish / Yorkshire ones. Kiss me, I'm Irish! Is Éireannach mé, ‘dom póg! [is Air- an- ack may, do pogue] Sure you'll have one for the road! Ná himigh go n-ólaimid deoch an dorais! [Na himie gu knowl-am-widge juchk an dor-ish] It's your round! Tá babhta deochanna agat orainn! [Ta bow-ta juchk-anna agat oreene ] It can't be my round, I'm Scottish! Tá dul amú ort, is Albanach mé! [Ta dul amoo ort, iss Alab-anac may!]

Hmmm. So it started with the Wildguzzi Forum, now they're in the Swedish media. What next? I would expect, 'The World'... but these guys seem to have no sense of direction. Sjögren that's an alien name alright. I'm suprised that it hasn't been better disguised, like that 'Pete Roper' name the other space-guy, Petal-Sjög-Rjöpr, is using.

totally unreasonable and unacceptable one badman, one point

Just what I was thinking as I rode into work this morning, under a blue sky. It's still quite cold, but a very nice looking day. L.bs!

Don't worry, Frenchbob is only joking. Also, he doesn't have much human company, so he gets a bit curmudgeonly – especially when his big chicken doesn't lay eggs, which is most days. There's lots of proof here that we think Tennis are great. I just can't think where it is at the moment.

So where did you get that picture from????

The ducati trellis frame is nearly always attached to a Ducati sportsbike engine. Uniquely, this trellis frame is attached to a bottle-nose dolphin. You do want blood from a stone, don't you? The engine in a Ducati trellis is a stressed member. While this engine doesn't appear too 'stressed', it does appear to be an integral part of the frame structure, along with the trellis.

The other design feature could be the use of telescopic forks.

It's a spring frame! Is that what your quiz title refers to? (compare which frames?)

Good enough for a measly point, surely?

The suspension system seems odd. Does the whole engine & transmission unit pivot on a central pin? Crikey. That was going to be my next invention.

and was the model known as the 'Rocket', despite the unique design feature of being underpowered?

It had 2 nifty silencers with spaceship fins on 'em for helping to get yer boots off after a hard day's slow riding.

Der affe ist im Bau M dubya

p.m. me

Make IMN Industria Meccanica Napoletana Model 200 Country of Origin Italy 2 unique design features. 1) It was over-priced, 2) it was under-powered It was an innovative shaft driven OHV horizontally opposed twin, built in 1956.

The correct mothertongue of the fatherland is: 'können Sie diesbezüglich verwenden verlegen Ihre gute Mutter und das springtongue wieder?' So I think that what you mean to say is actually: 'can you in this connection use to shift your good nut/mother and the springtongue again?' in which case, you really ought to be asking in the Technical Topics Forum. I would say that a special tool or two is probably needed, but I'm sure that there's a Scandinavian bloke somewhere who does a fine handcrafted kit.

Go to the Tenni Forum. That works just as well...

Intriguing. Tell us more.

It's about time that we had a good spring thread again.
