I agree, I like rotaries for a lot of the same reasons I like two-strokes. Low number of moving parts, high power per unit displacement, etc. I don't know if I'd want one for cruising everyday, though. As much as we all like bashing the four-strokes, if you're looking for something that will trundle along at eighth-throttle for three hours a day, every single day, it's hard to get more reliable than a giant four-stroke with no real power to speak of. It's when someone takes that design and tries to make it into a performance machine, that you start having problems.
