Well they only get 15 in a car and rebuild every 20k but I'd bet those numbers go up when you drop a 1000 pounds off the car:) I'd bet that v twin couldn't complete with that. I do like the manual idea that would be so much cheaper if problem popped up. I'd be first on waiting list if Honda came out with manual

I've seen v twins with 100k miles on them. The rotary would definitely be faster. What about a cbr 900 motor, or busa? Fk it, do an srt4 neon motor while we are being unreasonable!

I know it's "against religion " but in no way would I run American motor unless built to Jap standards. Wouldn't want a Polaris lol

Flat 6 from a gold wing? It's small torquey, just need a reverse that's not electric.

Put a turbo and you got 200HP/180FtLbs
Ahhhh best idea yet! Back to a Honda motor I like it. And turbo so it doesn't instantly fry s***

Because rotary motors suck. They are inefficient, finicky, and get HORRIBLE fuel mileage. How about a 120 inch S&S v-twin with a 6 speed trans custom rigged to work like the yxz clutch and shifter. Then throw a hairdryer on top of that.
Why go through all that when a $3000 kawasaki ninja off Craigslist would smoke it!

Woke up to movement in my driveway this morning. Flick on my phone light and see about 7-10 sets of green eyeballs staring at me about 10 ft from the truck. Only coyotes but sure gets your heart racing occasionally especially when they don't take off right away
