Title: Thumper Convert.
Post by: J.Y.Kelly on May 22, 2012, 11:37:26 AM

Been riding since 1968 and have finally come to realise that a single cylinder bike is all I need for ease of use, lighter weight, ease of maintenance, cheaper insurance and that unmistakeable single cylinder "thump". Wish I'd done it years ago. When I think of all the money I have wasted on fuel and the struggle I have had with heavy bikes in tight spaces, I wonder why it has taken me so long to reach enlightenment.
