ScuRoo Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Watch this & imagine the ride... Say fella's. This development is exciting - piston's, shaft-drive - thrusting Moto Guzzi light years forward. Modern packaging of old-school proven elements - but even better than Guzzi's W103 3-cylinder motor. Would you ride tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you ride tomorrow? Very cool video. Had not heard about the Duke engine. I'll keep my eye out for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom M Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 The Kneeslider did a little writeup on that motor a few days ago. It will be interesting to see how it pans out but I don't see it in a motorcycle anytime soon. http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2011/09/08/duke-engines-5-cylinder-4-stroke-3-injector-valveless-axial-engine/#more-16087 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luhbo Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 ... but I don't see it in a motorcycle anytime soon.... somewhere else neither. It's such an old idea. In the seventies you could buy russian model engines quite similar to this. Probably it's the case that some old patents have become free now. It's some nice animation, not more.
