Having a chat today regarding the Fantic 340, and how some later reed valve engines are finding there way into these. Its becoming in France and Spain quietly acceptable to put twinshocks on monos and later aircooled engines in twinshocks. We both wondered as we live in France how the latter, aircooled engine side of things is taken in the UK. This has been debated before, but are these bikes being stealthly built and accepted and as long as you dont trouble the scorers .....
One of us thinks they are and will just become the norm...... and one of us thinks the twinshock scene in the Uk will quietly reject them or make it know there not welcome..whos right..

I gather the later engines from the aircooled monos are the latest fiddle by a few of the top twinshock riders in the Normandale championships.
