Interesting idea, and a lot of advantages.
The idea of using a cylinder as a supercharger/compressor has been done before, most successfully by DKW and their pre-war split singles.

Interesting that he says it's for racetrack use only... Are there any road-racing classes anywhere which allow supercharging/turbocharging?

Very cool.

I am wondering when someone will attempt a "twin charger" system like VW has in europe (supercharged and turbocharged)

Only stock units from the early 80's bikes. No aftermarket supercharging or turbocharging.

It says racetrack use only probably because it hasn't been emissions tested and certified.

I used to have a Puch that was set up like that. One lung supercharging the other.
Never could make that damned thing run.
