The Leonhardt GUNBUS - 410 cu.in.

The idea to design an own vehicle - with all the consequences - is growing since quite a while in our minds. The question was, what kind of a vehicle (or even an aircraft) it should be. It should be something that is not available yet, where we got the possibilities to make it, that is ambitious to technics and creativity and that is correlated to our own history.All these things made us design this motorcycle. The cylinders, taken from a 9cyl. radial engine, and their cylinder heads in that size with their filigree cooling fins appeared to be technical beauties. After having designed the needed crankcase and the auxiliaries the size of the motorcycle was given. To get a proportional tire size was not easy, but thanks to RIGDON meanwhile even this problem is solved. Instead of the originally planned Boeing 767 tires GUNBUS now stands on RIGDON custom tires. In size and form these tires are comparable to the aircraft tires and they have got the right - round - profile. Load and speed index are sufficient and adequate supply is guaranteed.

Last but not least we point out that this motorcycle will be build in small series and is offered for sale. Please contact us for further information.

Due to multiple requests we decided to offer GUNBUS with a sidecar. Further details and technical specifications will follow soon.
