Hehehe... Good point Doc. I think all Dak owners should own a bike as
well. I think the compression on my bike is 11:1... MPG is something like
30MPG @ 100MPH (and that's driving conservative!)
WooHoo!!! :::::::-------)))))))

The best engine configuration for power *and* economy is a high compression
engine running high octane gas. Unfortunately, high compression produces
unacceptable levels of certain pollutants (but less *overall* pollutants).
What we need is a sensible EPA. Today's EPA can't see the forest cause the
trees are in the way.
