waited 6 minutes 44 seconds to see a 3 rotor trike.

Tank looks out of place but the motor install looks pretty sweet...

Cool idea but I really don't like the way it looks.

Also, Norton Cycle company is testing a new Rotary motorcycle like they use to produce back in the late 60's. They have pics and a write up in the current motorcycle magazines..

+1 I think I have heard about Suzuki making a rotary motorcycle back in the 70s. That would be awesome to have one.

I just realized it's in the DRAG Racing part of the forum. It's a completely different beast and can't be compared to the one I posted. I take back the failure comment.

I would be more worried about the flywheel letting go than getting my right leg burnt from the atmo venting wastegate or dump pipe
