Default What Honda Motorcycle engine should i use

i am building a project and i wanted to know if anyone could give me the dimensions of a honda motorcycle engine and the horsepower rating and maybe even how much it gets on gas. i am trying to build something and it would help alot if you could give me info on as many engines as possible. anything from a 2 cylinder to a 4 cylinder but no single cylinder engines because they dont have the power i am looking for. Thank you

That is a lot of information you are asking for, here is a link I have bookmarked that gives you some of the information you are asking for.

old carbed 600s are better on gas... but for the fuel economy savings, id much rather have the FI reliability, lack of headache, and tuning ease/capabilities..

whats your budget? plans? if its going in a go cart..... any ss bike is going to be overkill....

this thread is far to general.
