I call this wishful thinking. How easy is it to sit at home and type on the keyboard. I want a nuclear reactor on my bike so 1 gram of uranium in the fuel tank will outlast the bike. And what I like even more is you selected a bunch of manufacturers that you “expect” a diesel bike from.
Enfield had a mono pod diesel that made a little less power than the luna. Since your an engine fanatic I’m sure you know that they run 20+:1 compression ratio so they’d have to be built strong and that combined with expensive fuel injection systems would total a pricetag no sensible consumer would be willing to accept. No disrespect but..I see a few words like powerful and nimble
