Deadline has now passed for our little Jultävling of 2020! Nine underemployed members have submitted their answers and no less than four have covered almost all faults, tricks, irregularitises and devilish anomalies. The winners' names will be disclosed in next issue of the SVC Vincent magazine! |

Some of the funnier answers:
- A Suppenwürfel (Soup cube) has been sucked into the inlet port. A couple of members seemed to be surprisingly well orientated in the art of moon shining! We received skilled tips about faulty connection of the hoses, and a too high reading of the gauge. No names! |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Many had found faults that were present in Börje's garage "from the beginning". But have no fear. We have decided not to issue any minus points to those who have spotted other dubious things in the garage.
However, there are two exceptions. Two comments that honestly have hurt the jurys heart in a most serious way: - Minus points will be issued for the comment that "anyone who knows what Yoshimura is, should expect to be expelled from the club!" - Minus points will also be issued for the comment that "only old ladies and titmouses ride a bike with left side gear change" |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Now why is this such a sensitive point to the jury, one may ask.
Well, when it comes to Yoshimura and the proposed expulsion from the club, one of the jury members confesses that he sometimes uses a belt buckle equipped with the Yoshimura logo and also that he is the owner of quite a number of Yoshimura parts (conveniently hidden in an engine "of a different brand"), and that he has met with Fujio Yushimura, the grandson of Pops. So it is a very touchy subject. |

Both jury members do admit that they own bikes with left side gear change.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
But they are keen to point out that the person who made the comment about left side gear change himself has covered thousand of miles on a Honda Deauville.
To this, the Deauville rider and vicious commentator replies that the bike was intended for the British market and hence actually had a good old right side gear change. The jury dryly replies that the Deauville probably was intended for the local Japanese market, also with left hand traffic. If You study the text very close, You can see that it is written from the right to the left, just as they do in Japan. |
