This is the fella I'd like



I just can't believe it's taking so long for someone to put one of these into production.

I guess all the manufacturers are caught up with petrol bikes, apart from Enfield but that things a dinosaur.

I want one with an incredibly poweful and quiet electric fuel cell motor... its got to come!
Read about a hydrogen and oxygen generator being developed using water, alluminuim balls as a catallyst and solar energy, to provide the essential fuel.
probably been stopped by the petrol producing nations and corporate moguls!!

The L60 was a Rolls Royce design, but built by Leyland doh.gif It was a six cylinder supercharged two stroke with 12 opposed pistons (2 in each pot) with an alarming habit of running away and blowing itself up when the governor packed up. 750bhp !!! i would like to see someone put that into a sidecar outfit !

Technology i didnt do well in physics and never took chem but if im mistaken please excuse so what am i on about well energy produces heat lots of energy produces lots of it and heat looses energy its a circle ? so the engineers have abit of a dilemer if they can reduce friction means less heat thats a start ! they can increase cooling effects ! they can reduce weight the increase fuel burning effect in the combustion cylinder ,in the end they can only work with the ave technolgy at hand and take into account the cost effectivness the main factors there are other avenues like the wankle engine / the hydrogen powered engine ? god forbid the electric motor pha yuk ?/ the tech is ave to produce a plactic motor with plastic running parts ? but it seems what ever happens the tech will trickle down fron the car industry first so look to them then minaterize it ? well thats what i think at the mo lost it
