I get the V Twin American bike thing tho, twins are just cool. Only thing is we have an addiction for overpowering everything in the US. If it is a twin it better, by god, be 1800ccs, If it is a 4 cyl it better rev to 18,000 and make 200 hp...
right, v4 seems to be the easiest choice considering our addiction to the v layout. and as i understand it there are warehouses full of crated FP1's in europe in limbo status. fucking shame really, you'd think someone would sell them. prolly just get crushed

a modern competitive triple would have to be around 1100 ccs though still have high hopes triumph gets their shit together on that
