Well the Neander would show up in the rear view of some of the jap-scrap out there but not this one... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7992626224995826148 Check out the speedo.that's MILE PER HOUR baby.

I bet the Neander would have a similar feel ( in acceleration and torque, definitely not handling ) as the desmo twin which was awesome. Such a broad and smooth power band, nothing like these peaky japanese superbikes that force you to constantly shift up and down to keep on the power curve.

Re: [Biofuel] Diesel Motorcycle
Hi there, Anyone from Brazil out there have had the experience with ethanol vehicles? Interested in ethanol bikes and generators or the changes in fuel pump and injection systems needed for conversion from petrol engines. Any organisation or website from Brazil with such information beside the FFV automakers?

RE: [Biofuel] Diesel Motorcycle
Well, keith said its out of production, so I went to the manufacturers website (www.royalenfield.com ) and it does seem to have disappeared off the website...but I guess you could still put in an enquiry...for if , as keith says, its available in germany, then they could still be making it for the international market, and could get you one ..where ever you are..

RE: [Biofuel] Diesel Motorcycle
They do have one in my country (India)..don't know whether they export it or not, though the company does export some of the models to Europe and America. It's called the Royal Enfield Taurus. It comes from a very reputed manufacturer...sorta the harley of India. And its supposed to be cheaper to run than even walking (accounting for the calories u burn walking and the money you spend on food, to gain those calories as against the cost of the diesel.)!!! -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mel Riser Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 3:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Biofuel] Diesel Motorcycle Anyone know of a diesel motorcycle? mel --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
