Please post pictures of scary bike engines in this thread. Weird, bizzare, not necessarily big though.

Here's my contribution, a Hirth Honker 790cc Two-stroke, currently on sale at Buckets and Bits in the Hutt. Put this in your bike and smoke it!!
Terrifying, yet... I do want it.

This is more cool than scary (http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2005/02/09/hayabusa-v8-engine/). Two Hyabusa engines made into a V8.

The same guy did a stepped piston V8 which was in Classic Bike some time ago.
He may have also been behind the 500cc 2 stroke Norton back in the 1970's.

It would appear, dear sir, that you are in fact correct. (http://users.breathe.com/prhooper/bhe.htm)

I have an artical in a magazine at home (aussie mag) about the bike,picture of it going around a New Plymouth track,Ferndene I think.I'm pretty sure it was a Continental....I'll have to shift the Xmas tree to check,maybe next year?

Sorry,that was to quote Marty's post....but it got lost....

And off the same site, how about this great JAP engine...

A mate of mine is building a couple of these,one for a customer,and his own as he goes along.Carrillo rods,I forget what pistons,he's fitted a Sportster oil pump,lots of other mods to make them a usable engine in the modern world.A couple of weeks ago he was making moulds for some new crankcases,making them a bit stronger etc.Will be interesting if he ever finishes them.

even better ... its for sale (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JA-PRESTWICH-OHV-VTWIN-EX-RARE-FOUR-PORT-RACING-ENGINE_W0QQitemZ190059770402QQihZ009QQcategoryZ671 9QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).

The pink spark plugs (Lodge ?) are a nice original touch. But the carbs are way anachronistic, amal Monoblocs, not suitable at all. Lot of money for an engine thats an awful long way from running and I suspect may be a bitzer.

It might have been a Continental indeed.Was in a copy of Australian Performance Streetbike.
Can't remember what it came out of but was over its hours.

That's a repost of that bike - Mongoose sent it to me years ago from KB - and that was what started me on KB - and my life has not been normal since:shutup:

Is it a bank of 4 strokes or 2? Looks two - kinda sounds like 4's though

What are the egines (and how big is the overall capacity - 48 x what?)

I say, how about a Kawasaki H1R engine, 500cc two-stroke triple, professionally mated with a Kawasaki ZXR750 chassis. It's jolly fast.

At least it's an H configuration. The Lion's W shape would be a right pain.

I reckon you could do it. You'd only need to stretch the frame about 3 metres.
