    Pictures of SCARY bike engines please

    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. Two Hyabusa engines made into a V8.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    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.

    looks like a continental/Rolls Royce O460, not a Lycoming. Fins are too rounded.
