I'm hearing a lot of valve action. These are hydraulic tappets and they do have a sound to them. The engine is solidly built and the little explosions go out the pipe to the rear but there is still mechanical stuff going on.

Reminds me of an old knuckle head bike from years gone by.


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.
