All Rob needs is an oil level gauge . . . for his transmission.

Speaking of airhead oil pressure...don't these beasts have really high pressure? Seems I read at start-up, oil psi is over 100. Is that so? And what is the psi at highway speed? Just curious.

An "airhead" you didn't like? Could you give us a list of "motorcycles" you've met that you didn't like? I ask this without asking you to list the number of bikes currently in your possession.
Sure can:
#1 1972 NSU/Lube 175cc 2 stroke (made in Spain)
#2 Hmmm, I'll get back to you on that.
