That may be... but he has more real fabricating skill in lest morning constitutional than the clowns from Orangetown. It's painfull to watch those guys handle a TIG torch/grinder/wrenches.

The Problem here is they used the >58 gear cases .



Not to mention the Concentric Amals .



The Vincent series A Rapide designer was employed for the Oiling System .

" The P39 prototype offered for evaluation by NVT was the third made in Garside’s development programme. But although its engine was a completely new twin-rotor design mounted in a modified Bonneville chassis, the bike looked very much a lashed-up test bed that lacked any styling or cosmetic refinement. Fuel stains marred the tank and the exhaust system was painted a dull matt black. It was built to see if the concept worked: making it look attractive could come later. "

" At MIRA I was unable to match Fred Swift’s figures. But clocking a mean top speed of 119mph at 8000rpm with a standing quarter-mile time of 13.1 seconds at a terminal speed of 102.65mph "

I think rotaries are disgusting - worse than a normal two stroke.

They tell me R D stood for Ring Ding . . . :shock: gurgle gurgle .

Well presented, Matt, I guess Slumberglade Hall must`ve been an Aladdin`s cave to the NVT mob.
Fancy a slick-shift Wankel?
What do you reckon those U.A.V. mills sell for - as T.B.O. expired, - W.D. surplus?

I've owned my Mazdas long enough in a country town to know that you won't sway the die hard traditionalists.
