  1. 1, you let it happen :eek: no wonder you didn't answer before!

    2, Eh?

    :)
     
  2. If you know who came up with the bleed nipple in the reservoir idea, say "thanks" from me please.

    Why did they stop this? Must be a fashion thing.......

  6. Don't worry, he hasn't granted me his permission to divulge his (vast) personal data.
     
  7. No idea why they stopped. Probably an engineering issue. Terblanche had the idea, I think that he improved on a Steyr patent, if I remember correctly.
    As I said, Pierre has been overlooked as an engineer. He was not only a designer but foremost an industrial engineer. He thought of how mechanics work before thinking of how they looked. I know that many consider him a blight (they don't like his design) but I consider him a genius.

  15. OK. Just let me hand in my notice on my current job. Official Elise Biographer has a ring to it and of course, lots more money. Only problem is, it'll be a LOT of work.
