[SPAM] Re: Moki 180

[Bob Richards]

Has YS experimented with twins? I had not heard that (but then I have not paid much attention for a while).
 
I've always thought a 1.80 or 2.20 twin using existing parts from the .91 or 1.10 engines would be awesome.  Should be much smoother than a single banger.

The MOKI 3.6 Twin was awesome.....if a little heavy. Vertical was pure. Roll rate was maintained until out-a-sight going up...I remember having a hard time starting the twin. I recall building monster starters, 24 volts and all that stuff. Then one day I forgot my 2nd ni-starter and tried to start it on one cylinder. Dead easy!, Then I just lit the second cylinder with the one ni-starter.... The pistons were fighting each other as the fired alternately.
 
Still needed the tank right up against the wall
 
I'd love YS to bring out a 280 opposed twin, like their earlier experiments..still dreaming of sunny weather as well..
 
In NJ and cold... Eric.
