looking 4 info on rotary motorcycles

Looking for info or links on rotary powered bikes had found a few about two years ago. Saved them to favorites to let my dad check out,but my computer crashed and lost them. Looking for a new project and a rotary bike sounds like a fun and different under taking.

There are usually a couple rotary motorcycles listed at any given time on Ebay. If you go to Ebay and do a search of "Rotary motorcycles" or something similar you should find some. You can also search "Suzuki SE5" which I believe is one of the names for a rotary-powered motorcycle and you should find something. Hope this helps & good luck with your search.

Correction on the Suzuki. It's a "Suzuki RE5" not "SE5". There is at least one listed on ebay right now.

Also look for Hercules, and the Norton F1. Norton also I believe had some police bikes that were rotary but no rotary Norton was available on the US market. The Suzuki RE-5 is the easiest, most common rotary bike to find. I was thinking about getting one a couple years ago and at that time you could have probably built a complete bike with ebay parts every couple months, not quite so much any more.
