That's pretty cool, Bob.
I knew it would be something special if you were starting a thread!
King BMW. (BMW R 90/6). In this BMW in the years 1972/73, a water-cooled 4-cylinder two-stroke engine of Fa.König was installed. This engine fired normally racing boats Fa.König. Performance 500cc ca.150PS. In the embodiment shown the BMW engine developed at 594ccm 62PS at 8500U/min. The engine received a diaphragm control. Of course, the power transmission to the rear wheel was a cardan shaft. The machine weighs 175kg, reaching a maximum speed of 210km / h Photo: 14.05.2011, Meilenwerk Berlin

1 PS = 0.98631997 HP, so it's almost exactly the same thing. Still over 61.
The 150 PS 500cc version must have been very peaky and running individual open expansion chambers.
