Kevin Cameron discusses Ducati adopting vacural vacuum die casting.  I've known they were doing this for a while, but I liked his explaination of it.

KC always writes interesting in-depth stories, a favourite like Alan Cathcart.
Is he published anywhere besides Cycleworld?

He hasn't changed a bit in almost 40 years. [laugh]
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."

    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.

He (Kevin Cameron) used to build the cranks we ran in the RD's I used to build. If We were dropping bits off or picking up completed units I would always plan a whole day to that. If you could get him talking he was a oral encyclopedia of information. Great guy, a little odd but that is a good thing to me.

I recall he had a WWII Radial airplane motor in his living room. How cool is that?
