I think they should be more like 0.4m apart, as otherwise they won't reach the sparkplug holes?

Just be careful what you say about Urals! I had a brand new Neval. (Ural, Cossack, Dnepr, Neval.. All the same animal.)
It was hands down the best combo I ever rode. It would cruise at 80 on curvaceous A roads, was the best handling thing for drifting round roundabouts in the wet and I even managed a sustained 60mph over a freshly ploughed field.
The only motorbike I ever owned that had a reverse gear and a machine gun mount as standard... Trump that, clever d1ck Ducatisti...

Edit... You have to be on the ploughed field on purpose and upright, for it to count here!!

I had a Japanese home-market supercharged MR2 (140+ BHP << AT THE REAR WHEELS on a good day) that was awesome in the wet, just a touch on the pedal sent the ass fishtailing. lots of fun on even slightly damp roundabouts
Not sure that I'd be very happy, OK deeply unhappy, with an outfit doing the same thing on or off road.
Having tried an NSR 400 in a one of Robins wasp chassis and an RE Interceptor with a chair I am able to conclusively say that the three wheels experience is almost exclusively brown adrenaline based.
The NSR when it hit the power band especially so.
