Dolmar powered motorcycle: see the video?

The thread about Stihl vs. Husky, got me thinking about the Sachs / Dolmar I had, reminding me of this video.

If the link changes, just go to YouTube or Google and search...

Dolmar Chainsaw Motorcycle


Must really buzz, although I'm sure they balanced those engines a bit better than most - I would anyway.

ive seen this before and was hoping this video actually shows the bike moving. i see he starts the engines but have no idea if the thing actually works or if theres just a bunch of saws sitting on a shelf that looks like a motorcycle.

did you notice the very short,very wide drive belt---also--id like to see that 24 engine dolmar motorcycle go also--good lord--80cc'sx24=1120 cc's. same as a cb1100 honda!!!

As much as I like my Dolmar/Makita's, it is a bit silly when you compare specific outputs of a bike two stroke to a saw.
If the engines are stock, it'd have the same amount of grunt as a 250cc bike.
