3 vs 4

[Keith Walker <100662.3423@domain.elided>]

>>However I think it probably has a lot more to do with tooling and design
issues. If you already produce a 1600cc 4 cyl, then building a 1200cc
version is quite straighforward compared with designing a totally new 3
cyl engine (even if you can share some components).<<

Or as Triumph did with there range of motorcycles, produce a 4 by bolting
on another cylinder and dropping the balance shaft to produce 750 and 900
triples along with 1000 and 1200 fours

All the best
