IMG_20230712_0003.jpg May not be the right place to put this but SPACKE De Luuxe motors are very interesting and this illustration from Victor Pages book shows its many interesting features.
Face cam, skew gear drive to both the canshaft and magneto, master con rod system to name just a few of its unique features.

Without a doubt, Tommo,..

That is the most byzantine motorcycle motor design I've ever seen, and cannot fathom the master con rod system.

But I guess it could have been worse:

Vintage Pic of the day - July 18, 2023

From AMA Hall of Fame write up "Raoul "Woodsie" Castonguay was born in Fall River, Massachusetts, in 1908. His uncle was the famous board track racing star Jake De Rosier. Uncle Jake’s career as a factory racer for the Indian Motocycle Company made a big impression on the Castonguay family. Raoul was only about 5 years old when De Rosier died in a racing accident, but Raoul and his older brother, Wilfred, whose nickname was "Frenchy," were greatly influenced by their uncle’s fame and importance to the Indian racing program. "
