Stan,
Thanks,
On parity, it might be an intersting exercise to see how CVT inefficiency
vs. the time the gear spacing doesn't permit the MC motor to be on the
power peak works out.

torque of these 600cc motors?
Brands and models and what would be the best ones?
Are the transmission gears undercut lke all the bigger bikes are now so
they
could take a lot of load form a heavier vehicle w/out popping out of gear?
Have these been run in comparable weight and tire vehicles like any circle
track stuff?

Here is a link to a hp comparison of late-model 600cc bike engines:
http://www.sportrider.com/bikes/046_0607_middleweights_dyno_testing/photo_01.html
Follow the "Next" link just below the dyno chart to check out the torque
ratings.
You will notice that the engines are rated at about 105 to 110 hp, AT THE
REAR WHEEL. This is quite a bit more than what I understand a Rotax 494
will make, so bike engines would have to be restricted, perhaps with a
SAE-style flat-plate intake restrictor.
