Watch This Rotary Norton Scream Around The Isle of Man TT Course
We tend to only think of rotary engines in cars like the Mazda RX7, but they also made their way into the two-wheeled world, with legendary Scottish racer Steve 'Hizzy' Hislop racing a wankel-powered Norton 588 to victory in the 1992 Senior TT. This insane onboard lap shows how difficult they were to control...

Now THATS the true sound of music!
good way to show how far we have come in terms of the tt
When you are a biker, but rotary is life.
It doesn’t look any more difficult to ride than to a normal superbike
Smooth power output makes it easier.

Anyone know how it did in the TT? Surprised not to see more rotaries in motorsport in general. So, where did it place?
Just dont give them a reason to pull you over. If the bikes insured and you werent doing 70 in a 30 like youd stolen it then i cant see them sending you off for an MOT if it looks in good shape. Ive never heard of an unscheduled MOT either, thats a sneaky one!
