    Default Diesel Motorcycle

    I have perused the dieselbike.net site before, but this is one of the COOLEST conversions I've seen!

    I'd like to build one like it, and that would be Project #8,297 [ but I'm still struggling with Project #0001... ]...

    Later, Mike

    CAT/Perkins has a 1.1L that would seem to be a good candidate. Would love to find a 2G40 for a decent price for a build. Pricey motor tho.
