At first I asked why, but then the answer was clear. He couldn't afford the extra weight from installing a subie.

Let's see; a couple more beers than the one already sitting behind him, a pair of loose pants legs...

Yup, I can see his left leg getting wrapped up in that belt tightern' a overhead garage door spring.

That is WICKED COOL!

...and this is the plane the engine is planned for:



Personally, I would like to see it fitted onto a mini version of the Hughes H1 Racer!!!

I've been looking into this even before I started my RV9 several years ago.



Notice the guy's shirt, it has a Rotec logo on the it. That scooter would make a way better engine stand at Oshkosh than just a generic engine stand.
