MotoCzysz
Michael Czysz is Americas leading motorcycle designer/engineer. Known
for his unique Z-Line narrow V, longitudinal mounted, counter rotating
crank, 4 cylinder petrol-engines housed in the Radical C1 990. The
recent shift toward alternative power sources in transport inspired
Michael Czysz to shift his design focus and to enter the TTXGP. In a
recent blog post about the MotoCzysz TTXGP entry he commented, “It
became apparent to me that I was working to catch up in an era coming
to an end – maybe I should set off and try and lead in an era arriving.”
MotoCzysz is based in Portland, Oregon, USA and its TTXGP rider is Mark
Miller.
