Acme Labs V Twin

[WataboutBob101]

:O Where can I buy this? Im tired of the single cyl. china girl

[randolphmarshall]

First glance looks kind of cool. Closer examination reveals it is actually 2 independent engines(connected by a common case) with a single carb supplying both engines. The problem becomes apparent at the end of the video when the first engine comes to a complete stop while the second continues to rotate. This configuation might provide a power increase(limited by single carb), but severe harmonic vibration problems will occur due to non-syncronization of rotating and recipricating parts.

where to buy?

[riothero313]

China Girls are nice with twin tubes.

[FireDropTechnologies]

Did you tig the cases, for proto type?

Mite you be planning a new casting for the case?

I see some of my drawings a circulating around and about

Should make a nice board track bike clone.

[hammerogod]

2 single cylinder engines in 1 housing.

I am not trying to be a smart ass.

If you built it from scratch you are very good...but what is your goal?

[vistaman73]

Any news on this?

[NomaDairy]

nice!

[TheIndustrialphreak]

i want one for my moped!

[richardarichter123]

too much torque,ok,their is never to much toque

[kingsmountainview]

Let me preface by saying "I'm not trying to be a dick, but...." To be a twin the pistons have to share a common journal on the crank. And, to be a "V" the pistons have to be connected to the same crankshaft. Thusly, this is not a v-twin nor a v-2. The better thing to call it may be "crossplane-2". Beyond that, the only way this engine can "work" is if both cranks are connected together and then singularly connected to a clutch, due to the fact that one piston can fire faster than the other.

[MrDshit6669]

is the left cyl. firing?

[butchl1977]

Keep at it . This will be "THE" engine to run someday.

[naturalyshocked]

haha, 1 engines stop before the other engine. lol

[Bamchucknorris]

well the mufflers didnt last too long lol

[pencon61]

More like a parallel twin

[tomview1]

@pencon61 I agree -somewhat like a "tandem twin" layout from a KR250.

[Odenpiper]

Please exuse the spelling, I was in a rush.

I hate seeing jep engines on tribute bikes.

[Odenpiper]

go to Idian/ERIE USA 1915

this made shows pics of how he builds Indian & Exsesler motorcycles from scratch. This man can creat from a block of metal Indian motors & Exselser motors that are

exactly like the original vintage motors. He creats these bikes from nothing to the realventage motor bikes. Crazy Horse,, I hope you get this.

I wanna see real real replicas

produced here in America!

[tjsst162]

you gotta tell us how you made that. PLEASE.

[stopglobalswarming]

That is more evil than Chucky! I want it

[huuot]

How did you get the gear working?

[Deadairshow]

Please post more videos. I gotta see this thing up close.

[bumodo]

I hope you fellas get this little beast running, It would make my Indian replica project very happy :D

[redpiper1]

I'm patiently waiting for this baby to hit the market...Got a mean "Jones" to get started on my new boardtracker and gotta have this in my hand before we start to bend tubes...PLEASE get em out there !!!! This engine is AWESOME !

[acmemotorbikes]

the green line leads to the fuel tank which is out of frame, the sprocket isn't turning because the clutch is disengaged, you must be a real dumba**,

[furburger27]

@acmemotorbikes are the crankshafts connected somehow?Is it gear or chain or/ Very cool !

[thisgame2]

@acmemotorbikes awesome way to put yourself out there. im sure you will have awesome service if this is the attitude you show

[limeytrash]

Sprocket isn't turning, I see no fuel tank so how's it getting fuel? China girl engines are a piece of crap. A twin one will be a double piece of crap. Don Grube will love it. He will sell a million before the complaints start coming in and then he'll say "sorry".

[twofoot65]

Are these running on a common crank or independently?

I will buy one right now! =)

[IndianJoeMotorBikes]

Crazy Horse here, aka Indian Joe Motor Bikes, I need one of these for my Board Track Racer Tribute Motorized Bicycle!!!!

My Tribute Bicycle Board Track Racers, are screaming for a Mini-V-Twin!!!

[streetstrip80]

Send me one , I will test it for you
