This is a four-cylinder 50cc racer we spied at Sammy Millers museum a few weeks back? The pistons are slightly bigger than the spark plugs! :biggrin: - & on the other hand this is a two-wheel drive Maico scrambler, designed for the British Army?? Honda 250/4: Radial aircraft engine? No problem... just cut a divot in the tank. LOL!! Mr.Miller himself taking an unplanned shortcut on a borrowed 900SS at the IOM.
