Paul, Paul, Paul.... that was not me that called anyone a moron. The ONLY
thing I put in as I have on other occassions (tongue in cheek) is "WHY CAN'T
WE ALL GET ALONG" Please don't take things so seriously, especially me.

John, I'm not taking anyones side nor am I looking for an argument, but to
set
the record straight r.e. 2 stroke engines, after 20 odd years working on them
I think I've a rough idea of what I'm talking about, taken to its ultimate
extreme the modern 2 stroke engine can develop up to 400 b.h.p. per litre,
this isn't my opinion it's a statement of fact!, modern 500 c.c. G.P. bikes
have at least 190 bhp, they've backed off the power to make them more
rideable, there are no 1 litre 4stroke engines making 400 b.h.p. normally
aspirated period, having said all that I don't think that refering to people
as "morons" is the best way to advance your cause,but you chose your own
path.
