The engine certainly sounds interesting...putting out 140hp/120tq at 4500rpm with an 8K redline.  Forged crank, pistons.  Simple, potentially bulletproof motor that could be put in more than one type of platform.  Competition is always a good thing.   :2vrolijk_21:

Had the same thought.  There's a lot there that is very familiar to all of us that grew up with mouse motors.

nice.....I will have to keep my eye on that one. Simplicity at its best (think harley could take a lesson from them). The old chevys were bullet proof too.

Sounds good, I agree on the mouse motor sure is simple.  Need to put it in a bagger.

"Make it simple and focus on the rider experience"...

It comes down to this...

"What" do you do...Well we built...

"How" do you do it...See the video...

"WHY" do you do it...THAT is the key to marketing and building a product...

Just look at Apple's Marketing and Advertising...

Just one ole man's option...
