These horizontals are all “Starts in any gear” what is that all about? Probably not very practical for a street bike? The gear ratios could that be altered for street use. It seems that the high demand for these pit bike brought about some refinements for that market and none that really are cross marketable for street bikes.


So its not likely to see anyone develop a horizontal of bigger size and power for street use, they will likely stay very small and affordable and very fuel efficient, the later seems to be what most people that want cheap transportation desire.
