Yes and quite a cross pollination within that group too. NSU Ro80 car has twin rotor Wankel engine with the overall layout and engineering philosophy going into the Audi 100 car , but the leaving the rotary behind.

I used to sell the NSU RO80's in 1973 when I was in the car trade - they were very underated in my view. The later two plug engines were an improvement on the earlier four plug ones as I recall - not suited for stop start town work but brilliant for long commutes. I had a customer who used to drive from Birmingham to London or Blackpool several times a week in his - he racked up almost 60k miles in a year!

Some photos from East Kirkby last night.
I went on Kitty the 500 K1 and Graham took Noddy, the 750 K6. (1st photo). I didn't take pics of all the classics but there was are really good turnout of them. There were at least 7 CBX 1000's and Kawazaki Z1's / 900 were in abundance as well. I've added a couple of aerial photos showing just how many bikes turned up and they were still streaming through the gates when the pics were taken.

Wow what great photos, thank you for taking the time to post them, some really nice bikes there, that six piper CBX looks most impressive.
As a huge Hailwood fan I have always been in love with multiple pipes on a bike.
The Lancaster looks like it has lost it's wing tips must be part of the return to the skies project.

Cheers

Great photos NJ that Blue  Suzuki  GT750 reminds me of one my next door neighbour owned before we moved house in 1984 - he said it handled like a Camel but it was imho a really cool bike.(not just water cooled)

I rode Elen into central London on Sunday, she's been off the road for a few months so I didn't want to stray too far from home yet, and besides, she is exempt congestion charge and the ULZ charge, alas she ain't allowed to park where she wants though, maybe historic bikes should be allowed a blue badge? Should we work on it?   but hey, I even managed to find a place in the shade to actually park for free at Admiralty Arch...

[andy120t]

im sure I've seen Elen and you a couple of times near St Catherine's Dock, but that was pre-lockdown in early 2020...and I wasn't near enough to chat before the red 400 rode off.

Out for the first time this year at Eccleston Delph Biker Night near Wigan on the 500 tonight. Really good turn out with lots of classics.
