I say just use em ALL! ...Maybe do an in-line bike, like one of those chainsaw exhibition bikes with like 24 motors in tandem.
Yeah.

That looks like an old Iron Horse. If so, It's a 4 stroke, and the rotation is opposite of normal, so the cylinder would lean foreward in a motorbike application.

Not sure but I think the twin is an old Wisconsin. I have one, It's kinda heavy. would make an awesome trike engine. Could flip a vw transaxle and keep the engine as foreward as needed.

Or find an old BMW, stretch the frame and put it in there.
 
Hard to beat those two-smokers for sound and power...I think I had a tear in my eye looking at those poor old forgotten ring-dingers! American engines from that era were built MUCH better than the crap you see today. I say build them all! (and pm me with a price list on the ones you don't want!)
 
I'll sell just about any engine I own as long as its not in a build. heres some pics showing 1 of 12 engine bins. I need to go thru, sort 'em then sell em off. If you guys have a wish list PM me and Ill keep my eyes open.

Guys, we shouldn't be looking at these pictures....they're all from the future....we might corrupt the space-time continium. LOL

I was looking at these some of them have what looks like a gear reduction on them already that would be handy and no tank to cut out of the case

You have some interesting old engines, RR.
I hope it pays off, for you.

Have you got your crating skills honed?
And are you able to dial in the handling and shipping charges?

I will look forward to reviewing your catalogue, especially if you include pics of each unit, and cost.

Good luck
rc

Any of these engines would out run any china girl IMO. Chainsaw engines are powerhouses if looked @ power to weight ratio
