The government's of countries like the uk don't want us to have diesel engines. Simply because they can't totally control the price of whatever fuel you decide to put in it. Has nothing to do with emissions or global warming. It's all about control.
@Absinthium-tu9uq adding a turbo would not make it more unreliable if done correctly but to build a good deisel costs a lot because of the high temps and pressures it has to withstand, supercharger would be bad for efficiency because of the parasitic loss, it would also be heavy. Good for a tourer

I have and still drive and buy only diesel cars for everyday life. So I love diesel. But why we need a diesel motorcycle? Only thing worst I can think of it’s electric motorcycle. Motorcycle is fuel efficient even if it’s a 200 hp monster cuz it’s light. And you don’t get the revs with a diesel motorcycle.

Always thought the thunderstar was the best diesel bike. Uncompromising attention to detail and weight. custom cases, frame etc. Was ahead of its time by a long way. Wonder who owns it now? I built / converted 2 triumph tigers with smart car 800cc common rail engine and harley gearbox around 2010.

Electric bikes are even simpler, cheaper, often faster and zero emissions (just without the same range). Nice video thanks.
