Thats a bit trick. Wouldn't it have been simpler to buy a bigger engined bike. Nice little engineering project though.
Current bikes:
TriBsa CCM 350 Twin
Honda CB350F in Candy Bacchus Olive
Honda CB750F2 in Candy Apple Red
Triumph Trident 660 in Black/White
Triumph T100C
Suzuki GS1000HC

Honda CB750K5 in Planet Blue Metallic (Current Project)

Looks neat. Wonder how warm the left leg would get when riding - exhaust looks a bit close to the footrest.
Monoshock rear end is a bit different too.
This has been done before - came across this one: http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=72590.0.

It was at the Donnington Classic Bike Festival yesterday, I didn't go but the guy who took the photo said there was nobody around to ask about it.
