I've heard that when parked using the kickstand, these horizontally opposed jugs allow some oil to pool in the lower cylinder, making for a smokey startup. Also, due to the direction of rotation of the crankshaft, one needs to throttle differently whether turning right or left. Seems like a sidecar to hold this old gal upright will take care of those eccentricities!
