Interesting, but the only engines I see on the site that clearly are Spyder engines are the 600 and 900 ACE engines used in the Ryker, and those are on the product pages, not the 100 year page.

Thanks, that was a great site to explore.

It took a little digging, but I finally found this :

https://www.rotax.com/en/products/rotax-powertrains/details/rotax-1330-ace.html

Why it wasn't front and center like the other engines in the "100 Years" section is beyond me.

the new engines are (hopefully !) not history-models .. the last one was the V2 Mille from the first Spyders ..built till 20121/ 87.300 units !!

That VTwin is a pretty engine. I wish it were more on display in the RT's
