From living room built ROTARY RACE BIKES to beating the world

We had the absolute pleasure of talking in depth with none other than Brian Crighton, the driving force and technical wizard behind the success that Norton experienced back in the 80s and 90s with their unconventional rotary engines. From building race bikes in his living room to beating the Japanese manufacturers and lots in between!
Understand the history of Brian, his journey, his passion and how he came to the point of building yet another incredible world leading motorcycle.

Now, under Crighton Motorcycles and with the support of Rotron Power he has developed a new bike, the Crighton CR700W.
- 220hp @ 10,500rpm
- 142nm @ 9,500rpm
- 129.5kg dry weight
- 810mm seat height
- 0 rider aids!
- £95,000....
Make sure you stay to the end to hear the beast roar!

What did you learn from this video?

[@isaacburley6450]

that Brian's a legend and the vacuum system for air flow blew my mind! good interview mate.

[@ILikeMotorbikes]

@@isaacburley6450 absolutely spot on 😁 very clever system isn't it?

[@trevorphillips3055]

The cooling of the main shaft. I was aware of the heat effecting bearings longevity and this seems like a great solution.

[@stevehill4615]

I learnt from the video that Brian is a Jedi master of Wankel engines/engineering and there was 4 rotor eccentric shafts and an engine in the background, so whats the power output of that monster?

[@ILikeMotorbikes]

@@stevehill4615 he really knows his stuff. That engine was built to replace a CR500 based V4 2 stroke in a product called the Martin Jetpack. The quad rotor was designed to make 200-220hp constantly! Doesn't sound as impressive when compared to the CR700W engine but it's a very different design brief

[@gixx3r]

What a humble, brilliant engineer! I bet a conversation between him and Gordan Murray would be a feast of knowledge!

Brain Crighton keeping the rotary alive. I looked for 22 years after a DKW W2000 and found a 1,400 miles Hercules with a rusted out tank, rusty chrome but an immaculate rotor housing. What a hoot to ride and looks so good with its Jetsons engine. It makes not a lot of power but 100% smiles per mile.

What an incredibly talented but oh so humble man Brian is. I could listen to him speak for hours. I had no idea about the bikes complex history. How wonderful.

Only just found this through a friends recommendation, and yet another gentle, humble, man who i could talk bikes and engineering to for hours if allowed to.

Now that was a proper scoop! Lovely man Brian, one of Britains best for thinking outside the box. I was racing when Rocket Ron was riding, when he came past it was like being overtaken by a Phanton jet. Incredible that the world has not embraced this configuration of internal combustion? Mazda proved it worked but it's still a black art. All power to the team to get decent backing for a crack at the TT before it's deemed uneconomic.

[@ILikeMotorbikes]

Cheers Graham, it was fantastic to sit and chat with Brian! What he has behind his ears is absolutely boggling with the way he manages to think and problem solve! Fingers crossed they get the supoort/backing/sponsorship for a crack at the senior TT... What a specatle that would be again eh?

I love that he is keeping the bike as "non-wired" zero driver accompanying safety measures. Keep it visceral. Keep it analog. Keep it pure. There is something to be said for a machine that is trying to kill you every second your on it. That's the rush. Controlling that monster like riding a fire breathing dragon.

[@brianperry]

My experience with a Rotary engine was the original Wankle twin rotor in the NSU Ro80 in about 1973/4.. To be honest a bit of a pain. I bought it because I loved the design of the car...By the time I owned it the seals were already on the way out, But I was amazed at how revy and smooth the motor was, compered to a normal reciprocating engine. This Man, dare I say it, has developed this engine to where it is now...( I well remember the raucous howl from the JPS Nortons)... A man dedicated to this design of engine....I want one, but I fear its way out of my pocket..

[@ILikeMotorbikes]

The early designs of the engine, particularly back in the days of the NSU weren't perfect but the same can be said for many early production vehicles. Sadly the cost is going to be prohibitive as it's a mere £85,000!

[@schwags1969]

I met Joe Erlich, the austrian two stroke guru in the 80s at a bike show in London when he was at his exhibition stand. It wasnt bust at the time and maybe some bikers were not aware of his fame with two stroke racing engine design when with a tiny budget he embarrassed the big factory works bikes then. What a sweet gentleman he was and he his manners and humility really impressed me and Brian sesems so humble and loving his work just like Joe. Its great to see these brilliant engine guru innovators and they are going down in history and Brians achievements at Norton and now in his own team and the publicity for sponsors like JPS is massive with TV and bike press and racing enthusiasts worldwide and i cant understand why some big engineering companies and machining, bearing and automotive companies to start. What a great advertisement for shocks, brake pads etc

In 1987 i saw a norton 588 rotary race at Amaroo Park in Australia and the crowd went mad. It overtook everything on the strait and in the corners they caught up and overtook the Norton but it was so impressive with flames coming out of the exhaust. Im not surprised 2 were bought privately later in 1995. Ive never seen excitement like it. Later on i saw the classic bike racing at Brands Hatch. What a great day that was with vincent side car outfits, morgan 3 wheelers, manx Nortons and scott and Rudge and the like.

Thank you so much Mr Brian Crighton and this channel for the work on this fab bike, all the excitement and the great publicity you bring to this and the huge excitement.

I saw the 588 rotary Norton race at Amaroo park im Australia in 1987 and also at Brands Hatch in 1992 i think.not 1991.
