Oh, by the way, has anyone else seen the new motorcycle that Dan Gurney's been working on for awhile? http://www.allamericanracers.com/alligator/alligator_home.html
Gurney's got a long history of involvement with motorcycles, from making custom frames, etc. for Chuck Palmer's 4-stroke twin roadracers (early '70's), to facilitating wind-tunnel testing for Honda, and lots of Yamaha connections (and Yamaha has also long been heavily involved with Toyota's racing engine development, and we know Gurney has been tight with Toyota).
This is a neat bike; he doesn't reckon it will make any money whatsoever (he's put an enormous amount into it) but he just wanted to try something different.
