RE: Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle
The one US project of which I am aware is at http://f1engineering.com/ . They are building a Diesel motorcycle as part of the US military's one fuel program. (The military would like to be able to have all ground vehicles use diesel fuel to help with logistics.) It looks like a fairly nice bike. Unfortunately, the last update I got from them says that they don't have the resources to invest in DOT testing right now, so they are just delivering the military version. Based on this thread, I wonder if they would be willing to sell just the powertrain? I have to believe that there are enough knuckleheads out there who forgot to check or change the oil in their KLR650s to provide a few rolling chassises.

Re: [biofuel] building your own diesel motorcycle
There was a Dutch motorcycle that used a 2L Peugeot motor. I cannot remember what Gearbox he used, or the orientation. There is an Indian manufactured Enfield m/c using a Hatz 350cc diesel, but they are pedestrian. I recently have seen another one using a V-twin diesel, but cannot remember the details.
