It looks like a lawn mower engine.
It kind of cracks me up whenever I see custom bikes or backyard trikes where the owner is trying to sell them for some outrageous price for that. Any intelligent buyer has got to know that it will be damn near impossible to find replacement parts for it if anything goes wrong. It's ridiculous that someone thinks they can pass off their part-time hobby on someone else and make a profit.1981 XS1100SHComment

All I can say is I see a LOT of missed opportunity! Both looks and safety are lacking in his "conversion". JMHORay Matteis

Looks like ass, and definately not worth the money. I have considered building a diesel chopper, but using parts from an old air cooled diesel irrigation pump I have. Machine an adaptor plate to mate 2 of the diesel cylinders to a HD shovelhead bottom end, have custom forged H-beam rods built, and go chug-a-chug-a-chug to Sturgis, just to see what all the HD heads thought of the creation, but it would have round cast iron cylinders, not some sun-rotted plastic lawn mower engine cover...BARE BONES CHOPPERS: If it don't make it go faster, you don't need it!
