I hate HL's too!
This is the same philosophy Magoo and I argued continuously. He didn't "get" why anyone would race a 4 stroke, in fact besides his dislike of Kevin Rudd or any politcs left of Johnny Howard, four strokes weren't far behind on his shit list.
Hate is such an ugly word.
I reckon there's a place for all strokes in our sport...variety is what seperates us from modern racing. While I prefer two strokes I love seeing (
and hearing) trick four strokes at a meeting. HL's, C&Js, CCMs and even humble old stock framed luggers. These bikes often display mechanical ingenuity and tricks never seen on two stroke racers.
Having said that, the above bike is a little bit pricy, no matter how much bling and pizazz it has.
