VILLIERS V TWIN
This is a state of the art new air cooled 60 degree V engine designed to look like a traditional air cooled V Twin. It is very compact due to its short stroke compared to similar sized engines.
It runs 4 valve heads with twin cams driven by external belts and features dry sump lubrication. In terms of development we are at the bare casting stage with the major cast components done awaiting machining. We anticipate having a fully running engine within the next 6 months.
Our sister company Connaught Motorcycles plan to use this engine in their new retro inspired V Twin motorcycle.
