Fuel injected ey? I wonder whether DI (direct into the combustion chamber) or into the intake ....?
and whose FI equipment --?
Reminds of the mistake made by Norton with the Wankel -- It was meant to be for 500cc Grand Prix and the Americans objected saying the Wankel is a THREE-STROKE engine because it fires twice in 2 revolutions which was accepted by the Grand Prix officials so the Norton Wankel became a 630cc (plus a bit) only eligble for the higher capacity events ... Its riders reckoned the torque was phenomenal!!
Interesting bit, Bill!
Cheers!
