I don't have an airhead anymore and they still let me post, if I behave myself. I do still have a boxer engine though.

Hell, they almost begged me to come back.
edit: I am sorry for your loss. I never should have let my conversion go.

Gidday Fellas,

Garnet, same here mate, I'm boxerless and airless but now unfashionably labelled an "oilhead'' which has a nice ring to it I suppose.

I wouldn't mind an R27 , it would be quite enough for me.

It would be ashame if simply outgrowing airheads got you thrown out of the club. It would be like have a max IQ threshold that we couldn't tolerate.

Grant, maybe you mean "brickhead" with your K bike.
