I'm seriously considering [when I get to it] using a VW 1.5 with some light boost. It fits perfectly between the upper frame spars of a Katana. I'll take a pic someday while I'm moving things around.

However - a 50HP bike that weighs nearly 800lbs [trans n all] would be a slug, at best. Still faster than my Festiva, though.
