HA I have had this very idea for years. Not too many engines out there
with
the proper requirements, most of the small engines I looked at are
industrial and do not have the capacity. It may be posible to use one of
the
new .8 liter Benz engines used in the SmartCar. It is a fun project I
hope
to try one day.

RE: Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle

[Scott Alexander]

The one US project of which I am aware is at http://f1engineering.com/
.  They are building a Diesel motorcycle as part of the US military's
one fuel program.  (The military would like to be able to have all
ground vehicles use diesel fuel to help with logistics.)  It looks like
a fairly nice bike.  Unfortunately, the last update I got from them says
that they don't have the resources to invest in DOT testing right now,
so they are just delivering the military version.

Based on this thread, I wonder if they would be willing to sell just the
powertrain?  I have to believe that there are enough knuckleheads out
there who forgot to check or change the oil in their KLR650s to provide
a few rolling chassises.

Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle

[kline]

 Has anyone out there built a diesel powered motorcycle?  If so, let
 me know, I believe it would be a good project.

 It would be cool and unique, but what engine would you use that would
perform well in that application?

Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle

[Doug Foskey]

There was a Dutch motorcycle that used a 2L Peugeot motor. I cannot remember 
what Gearbox he used, or the orientation. There is an Indian manufactured 
Enfield m/c using a Hatz 350cc diesel, but they are pedestrian. I recently 
have seen another one using a V-twin diesel, but cannot remember the details.

Good luck! regards Doug

If you could use something as big as 2L, why not drop in a crate 1.9L VW
TDI?  They would probably revv high enough and respond quickly enough to
be cool in this application!

Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle

[Busyditch]

HA I have had this very idea for years. Not too many engines out there with
the proper requirements, most of the small engines I looked at are
industrial and do not have the capacity. It may be posible to use one of the
new .8 liter Benz engines used in the SmartCar. It is a fun project I hope
to try one day.
