    Ohh I've got a nice one but it's a Guzzi No as Nice as the JAP or Matchless but still stylish. I like the way the carbs and filters splay the hood.

    Why don't we all drive beautiful machines like this nowadays?

    With the leather hats and goggles too?

    Rotary exhausts run pretty hot. No valves = suck, squish, bang, SEE YA!
    A lot of fuel goes out the exhaust in a big port motor too.

    Come to think of it, why don't pro racing companies capitalize on rotary bike engines?

    I'd think the power delivery would be pretty damn smooth.
