I regret having read this thread. Friend has a CX650 Turbo honda (factory oem). Never uses it, just has it 'cause its different.

How about making your own fuel, perhaps from the moonshine you've been drinking.

Someone above mentioned the bottom end not being up to the task. RacerX mentioned Carillo rods. I hadn't heard that name in ages (back to my interest in cars). Now I find out that they make rods for MX bikes. Speaking of MX bikes, Honda is pushing the CRF450R engine so hard that in Reed's bike they switch engines between motos.

I smell troll, yes troll.

My 2 cents on this project:
fuel the bike with moonshine
go to hydaulic lifters and pushrods
remove excess drag by using a high quality bicycle chain for the final drive and for the camshaft (2 chains obviously)
use wd40 for oil (use a gravity fed can of wd40 (not the aerosol) and chill it prior to the run
hollow out the crankshaft, and drill holes in the con rods to lighten the mass
