Why hexhead please?

I'm happy to take the expected verbal abuse but an idiot-proof explanation of the term hexhead would be very much appreciated please.

Thanx in advance.
Keep The Faith.
 
Well, they tried 'Dummkopf' ('Blockhead') but apparently the BMW Marketing Dept. vetoed that one...

So 'Hexhead' it was... :thumb2

That's not a question worthy of abuse. When a South African state president challenges his political opponents to explain to him why taking a shower can't cure AIDS, that is worthy of abuse. :P

If you have a squizz at the cylinder heads of any '04 to '09 oil-cooled boxer-twin from the side, you'll see that they're vaguely hexagonal (six-sided) in shape. Hence the name. :thumb
 
Thanx Nick. TBH I've just had a look at a pic of one & realised my error.
Oh dear oh dear. I'll get my coat.

And you, Nimrod, can wave goodbye to any Navi III coming from my direction Mr. Smart Arse. :augie
 
A warm sausage between 2 bun halves should do the trick nicely. :kissy2

I do insist on butter though.
