Comment on Duke Engines' compact, lightweight valveless axial engineparent

It's difficult to compare the specific output of engines of dramatically different displacement. As a general rule, displacement and specific output are inversely correlated. That's not to say that motorcycle engines aren't an absolute marvel of engineering and technology, but it's not possible to compare them directly to engines with twice the displacement because you can't simply scale up the motorcycle engine and get the same results at the larger displacement.
