    Guy Martin onboard a 286 lb, 220HP ROTARY bike

    A recommended video popped up for Guy. Sound the bike makes is very unique.

    This bike is no ordinary bike. From the exhaust shaped like a rotor, to the carbon fibre fairing adorning the name of the machine and its creator. The Cright...

        Crighton was involved with the Roton too. One of them made it to Australia where it was developed a bit further. Then it was brought over here for our annual BEARS Sound of Thunder meeting. Very fast - at least in a straight line - and very noisy. Could hear it all the way round our local circuit. Poor throttle response looked to be the problem with it as it seemed quite difficult to ride.

          He's got the funding for 25 of them. They will be 100K£​ each. For a bike like that, a deal for sure. Way out of my league though.

          Crichton was in "Farscape" too, maybe a different "Crichton".

            Considering the engineering that must have gone into it, $127,687​ USD plus shipping does seem like a deal.

            Always enjoy seeing Guy on a bike.
