My suggestion is someone do a bit of engineering on some new cases and mount 2 of the Baja650 engines (Rotax?) parallel so you had a 1300cc twin cylinder grunter. You can upsize these engines to 800cc so a 1600cc Parallel twin? It could tow a criser with a caravan on it.

I just cannot imagine the torque you'd have to try and keep the front down on!

I always thought a V-max engine would be great coz they love low revs, but they arent the lightest, but the comes the lord of biking "V-boost"!

But now they have a 1700cc model at 200hp, I think the air intake is gunna suck in small puppies as it goes bye!

yeah that would do.
don't know about ultimate but mates putting 700r raptor engine (my engine Crying or Very sad ) in buggy should do the trick - only 30kg heavier than raptor

V-twins are sweet and buells have always been stump pulling.

I believe the latest Rotax for Buell is tuned a little more midrange but so long as they havent sacrificed bottom end so that you can standing start halfway up a dune.....

Ive never owns a roadbike, sports or naked sports, that wasnt a v-twin and I would gladly see something like the Yam MT-01 1700cc.

Im not interested in top speed I just want extreme efficiency in start power, low end torque and short shift your way through the tight stuff before you hit the straights. Give it a clutch/cvt to cope and pull dentures out of octagenerians as you fly past....

I reckon that 800cc out of the TRX (is that the Yamaha naked sports one???) That is a torquey bit of gear
