This is driving me nuts
« on: January 01, 2010, 04:59:37 AM »
A few years ago one of the mags tested a dirt bike where a guy had put a two cylinder air cooled two stroke engine in a more modern day frame.I thought it was pretty cool at the time but can't for the life of me remember what it was called.It wasn't just a one off as the guy had formed a company and would sell them to anyone interested.Does anyone remember the name of this bike or any details?

Ford do you really consider that a "modern" frame??? I was thinking that you were talking about something much newer!!

Didn't Puch develop a water cooled twin cylinder in the late 1970's??
