I know this isn't Thailand-related, but it could be!

MROasis... That is impressive!

MROasis... That is impressive!

It sure is.:blink: The first thing that came to mind was the name Ariel 1931 - 1959 who made motorbikes but not same spelling, don't know why they picked a CBR600RR with the first Aeriel car.

I know that there will probably never be a road produce MotoGP bike but I wonder how it would compare to the RC211V's 990cc V5 engine unit that produces close to 220 bhp at 14,000 rpm weighing in at 145kg.

Remember the Ariel Square 4. :D

Yes, my dad always wanted one but stuck with his Rudge 500 special which was simular to the TT Ulster model.

Wonder if any of these bikes got to Thailand.

The Atom is made by Ariel Ltd (the video title is mispelt) - the same company that made the bikes you're talking about, but only the same in name - they simply purchased the rights to the name long after the original Ariel went out of business.

In the episode the video I linked above came from, they had the Atom 500 race against a BMW S1000RR bike - it was close :D

Unfortunately all the clips of this race on Youtube have been butchered, and there's no other way to get video onto ThaiVisa.
