I just discovered yesterday that Suzi has a cross-flow cylinder head design just like the old sixties Chrysler Hemi's and some BMW engines.

The deeper I dig into the background of this particular model of motorcycle, the more fascinating it gets.

That's genuinely cool. It's the opposite of finding something "neat" in a store and then gradually discover that you dislike it. But I'm sure you didn't buy Suzi on a whim like a girl who buys some shirt upon a glance ;p

Actually, I'm ashamed to say it, but I did. Well, it wasn't wholly impulse, but my purchase was a product of impatience and heck, I didn't even test ride the thing before I bought it.

November of senior year in college can do strange things to one's judgment.

But yes, Suzi was a good find. And certainly has worn well. All I need to do is set aside some money for hotrodding and go to work.
