Decorite Harris Rotax 256

[Mattsharptrader]

I had a 250 Harris Rotax that I put together in 1990 and that produced 80bhp. Has a few wins before I ran out of money!

[828cc]

Not sure, 60 something I guess.

Is that a snowmobile engine?

[828cc]

They were mainly used in bikes and karts.

Hell Ya, the Rotax smokers

You'd be amazed how quick this bike is for a 250 :-) Anth.

I used to be involved in karting, every month a kart with one of these engines used to come, they would close track so just it could run; it was a beast!

Power sliding through the gears halfway down the straights!

I've never ridden a bike with such a small powerband.

Hi there, any chance you could send me some still shots of your decorite. I would like to get one to race in ICGP, but only have limited info so far. Any extra info would be gratefully received. Cheers 88Nash.

[828cc]

No problem, just send me a message with your email address. Cheers, Anth.
