I was with Rodney the day he started it for the first time. He had ear muffs on and I had nothing. I actually felt my brain itch from the noise!

250bhp out of a NA 13B has to be a race bridgeport. If you think a normal rotary is loud with pipes, this thing must sound like a rapid-fire howitzer, spit flames like one too. Probably revs to 11K, sucks 12 mpg and will last 10,000 miles on the apex seals.

Excellent though.

Nice to see the old BMW back end handles all that power.

Nick, those are puller fans for the bottom mount radiators. Rotaries typically self destruct when they overheat, its very important to keep them cool. There must be a video of this beast somewhere, that sound should be incredible!

What are the fan looking things on the underside of the bike?

Way cool. Check that great front shot of the bike on that link – the Weber sticking a mile out – freaky! Not loving the paint job myself but very apt nevertheless.

Great bike to feature
