Brough Superior 3-Cyl. Supercharged Radial bike engine .. Just found out about this tonight from a Biker mate .. And about 4 miles away from me ... Sounds quite nice .. Dave BC |

Nice engine! I cringe when I see a crank handle gripped like that, though. My Dad taught me :hammer: to wrap my thumb round the same side of the handle as my fingers, in case the engine kicked back and broke it. Andy |

So that's what a 3 cylinder Harley is supposed to sound like. :lol: Very nice sounding indeed. Bernd |

Hi Guys, As they would say on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In "very interesting, but stupid". Mr Brough may have been a "brilliant engineer", but that does not like a good engine configuration for a road bike. The weight is too high and 2 cylinders are vulnerable on bends and the third would over heat. Having said that, wouldn't it be great to have one. Ned |
