"Walter Kaaden was chief engineer of MZ's racing department through that firm's
glory years on the Grand Prix circuit, and in that capacity Kaaden advanced the state of
the art with regard to expansion chamber design very considerably. And one day while
discussing the subject he remarked, only in jest, “You'll know when you have the design
right, because the chamber will then be impossible to fit on the motorcycle without
having it drag the ground, burn the rider's leg, or force the relocation of one or more
major components”. "

Don't tell me when someome asks your 'What's your favorite quote?' you'll recite that....
BTW where is that from?
Well the quote part is “You'll know when you have the design right, because the chamber will then be impossible to fit on the motorcycle without having it drag the ground, burn the rider's leg, or force the relocation of one or more
major components”. but it needed context.
It's from an old two stroke tuning book reciting a story about Kaaden.
It's so true though, look on the bottom of the RZ's pipes and you'll see where it bottomed out.
And try to find a two stroke dirtbike without at least one good ding in the expansion chamber from a rock.
Carbon pipe guards ftw.

That says "Adrian" AND "Adrien" for that character, I'd have thought the second was more likely... but I'm in the UK so I don't know about US convention.

I vaguely remember reading something along the lines of:
"No one has ever proven that life is something to be taken seriously".
But that was a few years ago. In my mind, it seems associated with Douglas Adams, but even if I did read that in one of his books, he might have been quoting somebody else. If anyone can tell me the author and what the exact wording is, I would be very grateful. (A basic Google search didn't reveal anything -- so I might have made the whole thing up, or I don't know how to use Google properly, both very likely possibilities...)
