Welllllllll, considering our VTX's would have been known as "Vanguards" had the trademark not already been owned by Lawnboy ..... :lol:

If i remember correctly it was actually Briggs and Stratton that owned and currently uses the Vanguard trademark. ;)

As far as the Fury

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plymouth_Fury :D

[Hal @ Honda Direct Line]

A name can be trademarked for many different uses as long as the use doesn't conflict with any others.

Yup, that rings a bell - good call ... but I get points for being "close" don't I? :-P

[Evi|grin]

A name can be trademarked for many different uses as long as the use doesn't conflict with any others.

Having the TM used in both for motor applications might be why Honda no longer officially calls it the Vanguard engine. Smart move considering the large number of lawsuits filed by Honda over TM issues. :thumbup:

I doubt Chrsyler will be much of a problem considering the differences but....

[dhandshy]

there was a BSA 350 Fury(and Triumph Bandit)...in late 60's early 70's...don

although...they never make it to the marketplace
