Oh man, i kinda remember those.

Don who actually made them, whose engines?

I think there was a CanAm 250 street bike that had a Rotac (sp)
snowmobile engine with a variable speed pully for a transmission,
wasn't there???


see.. * http://www.motocross.com/vintage/canam/canam.htm *
Bombardier in Quebec manufactured them...and I believe my model had an
Austrian Rotax engine.
My bike (1979 model) was in almost new shape when I had it...the only
problem was a broken kick stand so I didn't fiddle with motor or engine
before I sold it to my nephew.
