It's Wankel

LOL. The hole under the seat has migrated to under the tank!

It's interesting and some nice work on it but can't help thinking they might as well have restored it to original. Performance mods aren't exactly needed, the discs look out of place, the hipster mirrors ditto. Generally a bit on this one but might read a bit more about that engine.

I like it, the hole above the engine makes a change from the usual hole where the airbox used to be.

Edit: Damn you CS, and all who sail in you.

[Supermofo]

I might not need a top box if I owned that.

[Count Steer]

Rotary. Hmmm....probably won't wheelie as it rotates in the same direction as a shaft drive.

[Taipan]

Look like they've made a good job of it, but it's not for me. I'm just too used to the look of normal engines to like it.

[Skub]

Heh.

It's kind of cool,however those duct tape like patches on the wheels are gash.

The rider looks really uncomfortable.

[Mr. Dazzle]

That's proper economical use of a pipe bender.

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

Despite it being Wankel, I actually quite like it.

Rotary. Hmmm....probably won't wheelie as it rotates in the same direction as a shaft drive.

IIRC with a rotary, it is only possible in bends, to one direction.
