It would have been interesting to have had the motor turned around.
Longitudinal crank and shaft drive like the Intruders, of course those are transverse crank V twins, but would have been cool to have a single with longitudinal crank. Yea shaft probably more $$$ than belt drive to make.

Cool.

Then you would have had a 650 version of the bmw R27.

The R-27 was a great looking bike as well!  but to heavy to be just a 250cc.
