Be more interesting if they'd used a rotary (not wankel!!!) instead of the radial - ie where all barrels spin

Phil,

Yeah, just like that I knew it had been done before (by our continental friends), but they omitted one vital component!!

The clutch I belive they had to be started on the stand , then ridden off, so to speak!

Great way of obtaining a FWD bike!
