Moto Guzzi V7/Ambassador/Eldorado/850 Probably redirect all these to a single-page history of this series. Main articles on each one later, if desired.
Wire wheels: Wire wheels#On motorcycles says only main article: Motorcycle construction#Wheels, but that is not a main article, it is a subsection. Bicycle wheel is a better article, but none of these 3 actually explains how spokes support the wheel pre-stressed w/compression.
Using the advertised bore and stroke of 65 x 75, the actual capacity is 995.89 cc, yet the engine is traditionally described as 995 cc and later as 997 cc. Does anyone have any more info on these dimensions? Seasalt05:20, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Nickname
Can anyone verify that the Ariel Square Four was nicknamed the Squariel. This was a common name I heard in the early '70s but for inclusion on the main page we need to find evidence of this (due to Wikipedias sometimes nonsensical verifiability not truth rules). (UTC)
