Hi. There has been an ongoing dispute on Brother Speed Motorcycle Club with regard to the criminal history of the club. Several COI members of the club have challenged the reliability of some of the sources and have attempted to remove content. This is not really my area of expertise but perhaps you would be able to take a look and adress their concerns or find more reputable sources on the club's criminal history?

I have slightly revised and amended the Megola article. However, there remains one self-contradiction within the text, to which I do not know the answer. Each Megola has two fuel tanks: a main tank within its body, and a header tank above the engine. Early in the article, the text says that a hand-pump delivers fuel to the header tank. However, later on, the text says the header tank is gravity fed.

Megola built two models: touring and sport. Both descriptions of the fuel system could be true, if one model has a fuel pump and the other model has a gravity feed. Or it could be that both production models had the same fuel delivery system, but the prototypes had something different. A hand-pump seems more likely, as the header tank is mounted relatively high up, but that is only my guess.

Whatever the case, please will an editor with more knowledge or better sources resolve this?
