Neat .... I have a few old friends who grew up riding bikes in the 60s and 70s. I was expecting a different sound as one of them described riding a Suzuki wankel as sounding more like turbine when going at speed and high revs.

What ever the orientation and engine design ... I'll always love having just a powerplant and two wheels .. nothing more free than that.
