Ballpoint 246niner Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 It is nice, looks like a BMW 1200 motor. Sure is Dazz- not sure if the motor is imported but wouldn't be hard to make it work in an aircraft- given that's where BMW's heritage is- the motor is based from the R1200s, with BMSK ignition and about 112hp(crank) and loads of torque, weight is around 68kgs. It is great in the bike it comes from but the latest version out now is DOHC with 115hp! We're selling heaps in the R1200GS at the moment. This motor was previewed at an aviation O/S trade fair 3 years ago.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazza 38 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I thought the 1200 BMW engine would make a great conversion for a/c use.:big_grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
