When I was 13 I used to think some motorcycle engines could be reasonable to adapt into a car. That was in 2003, and most motorcycles still resorted to good old carburettors, while I was quite afraid of dealing with EFI

But anyway, if you're really willing to try adapting a motorcycle engine into a small car, some companies such as Quaife make a gearset matching the pinion of a motorcycle transmission to a limited-slip differential and a reversing gear.
