Now with ever-increasing demand for greater efficiency, new and older alternative engine designs are attracting attention."
Suzuki produced and sold the rotary-engined RE-5 bike in 1975-1976. Heavy, complex and it produced a lot of engine heat. It never sold well and was discontinued after two years.
Interesting. I am not an engineer nor do I play one on television.
John, would the increase in friction from the rings be offset by decreased friction from other moving parts not included in the system such as valve trane?
I do not know... I do know that these things do matter & also that there are such things as reduced tension rings, that are used with vacuum pumps & such. I think this i sno more than a model on a computer & many items would need fixin before it could produce power...
Thanks for posting that. Very interesting. I can't imagine what the advantage of that design was or if it was just the French doing things their own way. After all, the French imitate no one and no one imitates the French.
