As this is a forum specifically for Zcar based projects you probably wont get much response, you would be better off asking in the Engine Conversions section in the main forum, here is a link to the Motorbike Engine Swaps section:

maybe you have right about this yellow "thinks" lol......
but i hope that, because the less weight to the front (mid engine) maybe they hold...... we will see....
unless you too have mid engine, and still do not hold for long....
