[Vwdiesel] Diesel motorcycle

[Area31 Research Facility]

I have thought it would be pretty awesome to put a 1.6 NA Jetta engine or 
even a turbo version in a motorcycle frame.  The cost of junk bikes seems to 
be through the roof now however so such a project would be costly.

I recently acquired a 1974 Honda 360 twin with a siezed engine and am in the 
process of turning it into an E-assisted bicycle so as to take advantage of 
rules allowing use on the road without registration or insurance.  I 
stretched the frame 12 inches in the engine bay which now carries 400 lbs of 
AGM sealed lead acid batteries.
