![]() I realize India has a more than 100% tariff on foreign made motorcycles, so they ship the parts to India and assemble them there, but calling them Indian companies is incorrect. Honda has factories all over the world - as do many of these multinationals. H-D has a factory in Brazil too, but they are not Brazilian. Template:Two wheelers in India needs to permanently have Harley-Davidson and Yamaha removed. Brianhe ( talk) 01:50, 30 August 2011 (UTC) Is Harley-Davdison an Indian company? ![]() Dennis Bratland ( talk) 20:22, 29 August 2011 (UTC) Did some cleanup/merging as suggested above, I'm going to take a break for a bit now. But that is precisely the nature of motorcycles - the sub-systems are highly interdependent. Which overlaps into ABS and electronic engine management. I should back up and say that I think that motorcycle final drives and transmissions should both be covered under Motorcycle transmission, as well as the subject of Traction control systems. Well, maybe it doesn't write itself, exactly, but a good start can be had by summarizing what we have in these other articles, without feeling obliged to go into great depth. Besides Motorcycle components#Transmission, and a summary of the contents of the two unit/pre-unit construction articles, there is Driveshaft#Motorcycle_drive_shafts, Continuously variable transmission, Slipper clutch, and in fact, almost every article in Category:Motorcycle transmissions. There is a lot of material that can be upmerged. Biker Biker ( talk) 15:51, 29 August 2011 (UTC) For Motorcycle transmission we could use the text at Motorcycle components#Transmission, but it currently has some inaccuracies such as this: "All two-wheelers use a sequential gearbox." - Brianhe ( talk) 19:04, 29 August 2011 (UTC) Yes, the article almost writes itself. Dennis Bratland ( talk) 14:35, 29 August 2011 (UTC) Agreed. What we really need is Motorcycle transmission. We kind of should to mention Pre-unit construction and Unit construction, but those articles are so excessively detailed and the navbox should cover higher level topics. Brianhe ( talk) 14:15, 29 August 2011 (UTC) Good work! I've moved this out of my user space for public use. Brianhe ( talk) 03:33, 29 August 2011 (UTC) Looks good to me. Feel free to click the "e" at the top to modify it. It hasn't been added to any articles yet I'm seeking comments on it first. Here is a new navbox in my userspace for motorcycle components. Thanks! - Dennis Bratland ( talk) 23:12, 21 August 2011 (UTC) New navbox Dennis Bratland ( talk) 03:10, 16 August 2011 (UTC) Is roadster a meaningful type of motorcycle?ĭiscuss at Talk:MZ Skorpion#Sport tourer or roadster. I'd redirect to Mark Neale for now and if the documentary ever gets wider release and more coverage, bring the article back. says the DVD is only for sale from them in the US and Canada, and without significant coverage like reviews in major media, there's not enough. Was it direct-to-DVD? - Brianhe ( talk) 01:48, 16 August 2011 (UTC) It doesn't look like it's widely distributed, which would fail Wikipedia:Notability (films). has a review but is a marginal source, IMDB doesn't seem to have it listed.
