I've seem some pics of a French bike with this engine in...anyone have build details? I believe the builder has since been killed, sadly.

If a lightweight diesel build is not feesable, I want reasonable pole so I can smoke everybody out!

You don't need 40BHP for a commuter bike. If you want a sportsbike with a diesel take a big engine, a suitable frame, spend a year building one and come to the conclusion that you have created a behemoth that is well over 200kg and not a sportsbike. I think the new 1.4HDi from Peugeot is aluminium,...

Anyway, I found the thread on converting petrols...despite whats been said, I think you could take a big inline 4 and swop pistons/...

If I could get to 200KGs, then I'd look into a project further, but my requirements would be a commuter/sportsbike, so anything over that target weight would convince me to stick with petrol....

If you look at it go straight to the extra code features. However, I think the code writers are stating that diesel cont...

Are you using the 1.4 litre engine?

Hi everyone...after spending ages thinking an Enfield is not really what you'd use for a conversion when they come out of the factory like that, I'm here! Ideally, I would like a diesel powered commuter bike, but I have criteria to match. They are all quite reasonable from modern bikes, but perhaps ...
