2 stroke injection

[Gus Cameron]

If you want to try 2-stroke injection, check out the Bimota Duo
(http://www.sepnet.com/cycle/misc.htm#Bimota is a place to start), a fuel
injected 500cc twin bike.  It was designed as a Grand Prix engine but it
never made the power to compete with the V4's. Bimota tried to recoup the
cost of development by turning it into a road bike but the emission
controls made it into a pig.  Looks nice though.
