Mazda isn't exactly a big name for motorcycles as far as I know. I guess a rotary motorcycle would be sweet but I doubt it would be one rotor. From my understand, and from other people's experience, running one rotor isn't efficient and doesn't make half the power as if it were coupled with another rotor. I don't understand all of the logic behind, so hopefully an expert will clarify.

NSU used to make rotary motorcycles, I think Audi owns them now.

There was a rotary powered motorcycle... Suzuki/Mazda or something like that.

It it would run HOT as hell and would be like riding a tailpipe!
Brings a whole new meaning to "roasted nuts"...

Man, if someone made a rotary motorcycle (that fit my... uh... stubby dimensions), I would SERIOUSLY consider it...
