Interesting idea, and a lot of advantages. The idea of using a cylinder as a supercharger/compressor has been done before, most successfully by DKW and their pre-war split singles. Interesting that he says it's for racetrack use only... Are there any road-racing classes anywhere which allow supercharging/turbocharging? |

Very cool. I am wondering when someone will attempt a "twin charger" system like VW has in europe (supercharged and turbocharged) |

Only stock units from the early 80's bikes. No aftermarket supercharging or turbocharging. It says racetrack use only probably because it hasn't been emissions tested and certified. |

I used to have a Puch that was set up like that. One lung supercharging the other. Never could make that damned thing run. |
