is noisy, shakes when in gear, in other words, "agricultural" which is fine for what it was built!
And that is the best I can do! :kacsint2:

You could have just said 'like a 'Harley Davidson'  ;)

Harley are fine for what they were built also, so may be a misunderstanding. :be happy:
But lets not bash a brand while make the other look better. Harleys have come a long
way, and most riders are nice people. Never judge a book by the cover, or a rider by his bike! :kacsint2:

I get it. The boxer has been referred to as a 'tractor' engine, and thus, ah! the 'agricultural', ha!, I get it. funny!


I hope you don't mind if I use that line in the future cause its funny, though, maybe not as relevant anymore with these sophisticated RT/s nowadays. You could call my 'oil-head' a farm vehicle and it would fit the racket it made. It sounded like a diesel.

My present bike is a hexhead, therefore a boxer! It is smooth, quiet and is all I want in a motorcycle.
Whatever your conclusions are. is your problem. Am not going to try explain anything for you, as it appears to
be like pissing against the wind! This is the last you will hear from me!

I am with you here. I don't think we are hearing each other. There appears to be a comprehension barrier. Could be culture, language, education, upbringing, whatever it is, seems like throwing in the towel would be the sensible thing to do. Maybe in the next topic.
