Naw.  I use my '32 6 litre V12 Lycoming powered Auburn for going to
work, and my 350cc 1949 opposed twin Douglas MK III on weekends. 
The problem is that the Duggie has Lucas electrics, which last
about two weeks between rebuilds.  They get about 10 and 90 miles
per Imperial gallon, respectively.  The Auburn was the winner in a
tussle with an Ottawa streetcar, at the cost of a bent fender.
