And Julie's the Mother Superior.

Not sure if we should differentiate any level of expertise by gender that is probably not not what NJ would want it could be deemed as patronising to some folk?

That said NJ can speak for herself - and no doubt will !

Ha!

What a great idea.

Let me think about it.

Should it be capacity related? Or desirability? I can see the arguments already

  Maybe a top rank of "Gold Wing" or even on a different tack "Soichiro", not keen on the Star Wars theme.

Grogu has to be higher than Jedi as Yoda taught the Jedi.

On a slightly different tack dont really care what it is but Steve need to log Bitsa into it automatically

You'd be surprised, Trigger loves them! But we can't have a C.B.X. granted it's an awesome bit of kit, but it's NOT a single cam, which is what the forums about!

Could a Grogu actually get a helmet on, let alone get a leg over anything bigger than a kids motocrosser?  ;D

A CX500 isn't a single cam either.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

I was about say that IIRC the CX was a pushrod engine with one camshaft down between the cylinders somewhere?

Just not an overhead cam.
