And Now For Something Entirely Different.... - redbirds_imp - 08-18-2014
Never heard of this one before. A clever new take on a boxer twin with an instrument layout reminiscent of a late 60's Jaguar.

Hey, longitudinal boxer twin existed in 1920s and 1930 a British company named Douglas produced boxer twins but later they moved it to BMW configuration:
Midual will probably stay an exotic one off motorbike while Douglas was quite popular in continental Europe.

Funny coincidence. I came across a Douglas only recently. See:
