Good use for old radial egines?
Wankel engine http://www.keveney.com/Wankel.html
I hate to think how much that bike weighs. Various manufactures (OK maybe 2) have made Wankel engined bikes in production. Norton http://www.millville.org/workshops_f...ls/norton.html They raced them seriously too IIRC. I suspect that the Norton engine design may still be in production. It used a novel rotor cooling system where (IIRC) air was drawn through the inside of the rotor. (Induction air? - surely not) Suzuki http://www.suzukicycles.org/RE5/RE5-Rotary.shtml Sorry if this is too OT.
