Colin: I guess those motorcycle manufacturers put transmissions (PRSU's) on
bikes for decoration. Before you start flaming I would suggest you open up
an auto repair manual and see how both the horsepower and torque values of
your favorite auto engine has steadily declined over the years all else
being equal. By the way as a matter of interest for all those nay sayers out
there that were so quick to put down the Harley engine, it is the only
motorcycle engine that can not only survive but thrive on a steady diet of
avgas without any modification whatsoever. Again before the flaming starts,
I have put well over 60 thousand miles of my Evolution engine on a steady
diet of avgas and when I tore it down just to see how the old girl was doing
after all these years, there was no wear on the valve train, bearings or
carbon buildup on pistons, cylinder walls, chambers or even valves for that
matter and the performance was nothing short of spectacular.
