Jay Leno's car sure ain't no Locost! 
Yeah, of course a 6l V12 would be not suitable for a locost. I just wanted to point out it can be VERY powerfull.
Like I said, I believe a rotary engine is ideal: light, powerfull, but userfriendly.
A bike engine is just not that versatile: it needs a lot of RPM's to start moving. It's very good for a track car, but in city traffic
it's a whole other story.

lift a jag v12 on an engine crane, with it's gearbox attached, then decide if you want to use it..........................that is if your engine
crane is capable of lifting it, will need half a tonne capacity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously, just the Jag V12 engine and it's auto box weigh the same (in ball park figures) as a whole bike engined 7!!!
