The earliest versions of the Honda Gold Wing were flat-4 instead of flat-6.

If it could fit into a CB500 frame, with a fairing and a reasonable gearing it might work well. And IIRC that 700cc is IDI, so it's a good excuse to try veg oils as an alternative fuel.

Hyundai has a 1.1 with about 75 hp, which should be enough for a motorcycle to do what you want it to do. And it should be small enough to fit a motorbike frame, as well.

That 3-cyl 1.1L turbodiesel might be perfect to fit into a Triumph.
