Just a few days ago, on the occasion of the International Exhibition of Beijing Motorcycles, Crystalburn, better known as CBNMOTOR, presented a surprising two -cylinder boxer engine refrigerated by air and design, very seem, or the classic propellants that BMW Motorrad once again put Motorrad. In addition, they showed several motorcycle models also equipped with similar architecture mechanics, with a clear retro air where mechanical simplicity prevails.
Little or very little we still know about CBNMOTOR and his commercial plans for the future. As explained by Motorrad Online, it seems that the brand was founded shortly before the well -known Peking Motor event began. What we are moderately clear is that we are facing the birth of a new firm within the two -wheeled sector that will probably take the commercial steps that other local brands have already followed.
What we expect from Cbnmotor
There is no doubt that Chinese development policy has little or nothing has to do with the one that is carried in other parts of the globe. CBNMOTOR is a good example of this, especially the two -cylinder boxer propeller that they just presented. As we can see, we would be facing a blatant copy of the everlasting German engine, although this will probably be what will less matter once mounted on some new brand model.
For now we only know that cubica some 900 cc And that could offer, comparing it with the official factory specifications of the BMW R 90 S, Around 70 hp of power In the technical part, a priori, I would have 2 valves per cylinderand we can observe details such as the positioning of the spark plugs, placed diagonally at the top of the cylinders.
Even the oil level rod or the cardan connection itself are practically equal to those of the BMW engine. However, we still have some doubts about how this block will finally be configured. To start, if CBNMOTOR will use carburetors or electronic injection in the feed section. Also what will be the escape system chosen by the brand.
In any case, we are not facing anything new in this aspect. That a Chinese brand replicates models of other European or Japanese brands is the order of the day. In fact, they have already presented the first teaser of what looks like a retro -looking naked driven precisely by this engine.
We assume that more than one fan of the Bavarian brand will be stirring in his armchair. Things of globalization.
