Those oval pistons would make top ashtrays.

Another pool room bike. 251km on the clock. There was such a fuss about them when they came out and the whole oval piston thing yet I never saw one actually used. What's the point? Could be made of wood for all the buyers care....

^^^ ditto - along the same lines as that $250,000 billet titanium mv augusta that gets pushed around shows.
Technology for technologies sake is pointless unless it filters down to practical use. Besides, those pistons aren't really oval... they're more of a rounded off rectangular shape [:p]

NR750 ?
Silly money oval piston 4 trying to be a V8.

I used to Drink in the "Spring Hill" Tavern in Wolverhampton.
One of the regulars there had one, used to go down the pub on it.
Remember Steve James ? UK snooker player ?
He beat Alex Higgins and Stephen Hendry on a good day.

He had one.
I think he hit a dog on the way home one night !

Steve James crashing a new NR,
Ben on "Judge" at the drags,
Roland Sands on his new Ducati,

A mate once got tanked at the pub then jumped on his z9 and went to launch but forgot the (massive) padlock on the front disc..... it snapped his fork leg
