overthehill Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 I know its not got an engine (well i dont think it has anyway) but the downhill Honda bikes at the Fort this weekend were awsome examples of engineering.- the alloy frames were works of art and the 'gearbox' at the front was typical Honda. - when they do something they do it right.
