Funkiest looking sport bike ever, but it was the first step on the path that led to the S1000RR.

It was a Suzuki. And it had a storage trunk big enough to fit a helmet in where the fuel tank normally goes.

Re: new twenty questions game
Was it that 250 you told me about one day, it left a grey hase of smoke and unburnt fuel behind you? I cant remember what you told me it was right now.
Random stuff I say:
Women are like square roots, if they're under 17 you just have to do them in your head.
What would you be if you were attached to another object by an incline plane, wrapped helicly around an axis?

Re: new twenty questions game
That was the 2-stroke I just posted about in the for sale section, it could only rev to about 11,000.
This one was in production from 1990 to 1998

Re: new twenty questions game
I'm thinking of a bike that probably doesn't meet the "mass-production" clause of this game. It was produced to homologate an unsuccessful '90s race bike.

Yes, it's a Japanese make.
The number of con-rods is NOT the same as the number of pistons.

Re: new twenty questions game
Is it of a 6 stroke/opposing piston design? (not a boxer, two pistons in one bore)

Re: new twenty questions game
Shaun wins! Figured that one wouldn't take very long at all.
The 1992 NR750 had one of the most bizarre engine configurations ever, an oval-pistoned V4 with two conrods and 8 valves percylinder bore. Only a few hundred street versions were produced for homologation purposes, and cost around $50,000. You might have seen one in the museum at BMP...

Re: new twenty questions game
Amazing machine. I read that the biggest engineering challenge in this project was to get an adequate seal from the rings. Its hard to believe the 500cc version developed 130hp. Thats from a 4-stroke with only 500cc!
I guess its my turn again.
Who can guess the name of the limited edition motogp replica that doesnt use valve springs?
