Great pics. Now tell us where we can get the BMW enjin. I suspect you can make a good business supplying, installing and maintaining these - a lot of 582 guys are looking for alternatives.

I spoke to an agent at Bavaria Motorcycles last week. According to him the main block/crank of the BMW's are Rotax, with the remainder of the engine being BMW parts. Is this true? Anyone know?

Do you have any videos you can share?
These are pilots I stand in awe of. Vliegvark does not just fly his trike he becomes part of it. I think he was born with wings. :
Thanks

Not the boxer engines, only the single cylinder 650cc engines are based on Rotax.
Fly safe,

Watch this space gentlemen, these two guys probably knows more about BM engines for light aeries than anyone else in SA. They built and tested and developed their engines in their own time and with their own money. Their BB kit should be completed soon.......and wil be powered by a: BMW.
