Hmm.. since everyone here owns a Suzuki product, I would have thought that everyone was already completely converted to the metric system. I have yet to hear someone here describe their 1.0 liter engine as 61 cubic inches, or hearing how you can use a 3/8 inch wrench on all those 10 mm bolts (after filing them down just a touch).

Metric conversion challenges could also explain why some folks up from Washington State driving north in BC on Highway 99 (I-5) (try to) fly by at 180 km/hr. after seeing a max speed sign of 110.

Red and blue lights in your rear view mirror mean the same thing, btw.. :rasp :lol

When I got my Metro, I had to break down a buy a set of Metric wrenches... :lol

I'll never fully convert; that's for sure. I just refer to them as #10, #12, etc... :P
