Dear fellow motorcyclists.

I had the pleasure of owning a KH Twin 500cc model. Its maneuverability was excellent, thanks to its little relative weight (177kg) and especially its very large trail angle, making it gentle and precise high speed corners the combination of shock absorbers of double springs with joints along the bottom of the wheel and forquihas teledráulicas, bringing to pilot a remarkable stability and comfort even though the semi-rigid frame. Quickened with ease. Its nerve center was the main bearing on the right plan type, which was the engine overheats when much requested. I had the cylinders and the cast iron twin heads, because Britain still did not have enough aluminum in the post-war motorcycle market. I replaced it with another machine with transmission drive shaft, but regretted it much, though require more preventive and corrective maintenance. I never managed to get it back. Greetings to builders Edward Turner, Val Page, its machining operations professionals, the BSA and Triumph in the long and beautiful history of manufacturing motorcycles in England.
I thank the managers of this site competent and able to convey my feelings to glaze colleagues in Twins English models.
