    i find engines,gearboxes,clutches etc an engineering marvel,especially when you actually take them apart to see how they really work,but the rotary engine is something else,engineering at it's simpliest,just shame they cant "quite" get it right

    I had no doubt that Norton would be at the top before I looked at the link

    I remember watching those Norton racers eat the other bikes on the straights! There was always the argument whether they were 588 or double the capicity bit like the mazda rx7 and rx8
