Better torque at low rpm, "zero" vibration, better fuel economy, light weight, and lower emissions.......... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Now, does KEP make an adapter plate? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Pretty indepth but very interesting read.

Damn, those guys could use some English writing lessons!!

From the illo here, it looks like a Wankel rotary with a whole lot more complex moving bits. To me, that says "two-stroke emissions and oil usage issues, and much less reliability than a Wankel". Overal verdict: Thumbs DOWN.
