A lot of interesting projects come across our desk here at The Kneeslider, but this one, sent in by Daniele 'Titus' Sabatini of Rome, Italy, deserves a bit more attention. It's a brand new three cylinder motorcycle engine called the Nembo Motociclette Super 32 Rovescio, a two valve, air/oil cooled, single overhead cam, inverted triple. "Inverted," means just what it says, the engine is designed to run upside down. The compact crankcase is used as a stressed part of the chassis without any load being placed on the cylinders and the inverted arrangement get the cylinders well out into the airflow. A dry sump oil system keeps the oil going everywhere it should.
Displacement ranges from 1814cc - 110.7 cubic inches to 2097cc - 127.97 cubic inches with horsepower from 160 to 250 respectively and 119.3 to 177.2 foot pounds of torque. Daniele is not a fan of the plastic covered sport bikes we see everywhere so he decided his motorcycles would be a visual feast, a good looking engine, a minimal frame and no fairings to hide all of the fins and castings. I like the way he thinks.
