This is different (ENGINE DESIGN)

[oldskool]

Solar Powered??? only works when there is sunlight...

naaah mate, loony powered, only works under the full moon

[evoetr]

that army one is even cleverer. It's almost like 4 pistons in 2 cylinders thus doubling stroke for each bore therefore more cc's... more power. It's not really like a subie or beemer boxer as they're 4 stroke but as bogan said i can't see the advantage over a twin 2 stroke except for the opposing piston idea... that's cool

Yea it looks pretty crazy aye, imagine servicing it....

I was only 12, it was one of my earlier inventions, its probably around somewhere... ran off a AA battery, some sort of wire or something, and a bulb. in an acrylic casing. If you lot are impressed by that, wait till you see my next project... it's all about what happens when you mix angle grinders and rocket launchers... Oh and me and dad are putting an engine into my old couch... that's gonna be wicked cool!!!

[kezzafish]

yeah allright Ill Mitch. i'll buy one if you stop using retarded avatars. I like to call them retardvatars

[kezzafish]

avatards? ? ?

how would this be different to any other motorcycle engine layout in regards to clutch and gearbox?

i wud say its fairly different if you are mounting east west (conventional inline direction) as the crank is in the middle, rather than at one end like usual, so no matter where you put the gearbox, you will have bits hanging down below the crankshaft, meaning you will have to mount the whole thing higher, poor cog location etc etc. North-South, id be the same as a bmw boxer engine, but probly cud be a wee bit narrower as it does not need valves/cams etc.

actually while we are on alternative engine designs, what ever happend to that guy in nz who could run his bike on water, he was on 60 minutes with it i beleive, looked like a hoax at the time but still intrested to see what he actually did.

I was riding my bike down the beach in otaki a few years ago and popped up to the dairy to get a can of fizzy pop and this big fat old cunt with a beard like santa and a gunt (half gut half cunt) that hung waaay over his stubbies came up to me and started asking me where he could get a single cylinder alloy motor for cheap (like the one on my bike).

He reconed he was gonna make hydrogen from water and then started blabing on about how he had made lasers that could set houses on fire and the govt had taken them off him etc etc.

He was a bit mental but a bloody genius. just goes to show you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover 'cos he really did look like shit but i recon some of his inventions may have rivalled sammi's doubleA torch

[Teava]

Its like a Rotary engine but with piston's mounted on the sides.... look's stupid!

Has the same motion in the crank as the Rotary.

shit, better watch my back, im working on a similar idea. Actually better idea, publish my schematics on kber, then they cant kill me to stop the revolution, here ya go

musta been some sweet lasers, maybe they took them off him cos he was attaching them to sharks, he was at the beach after all

yes well that'd be the obvious choice now wouldn't it

And then he pulled out his bottle of meths and coke mix and wandered off down the beach asking for change right.
