Well, the original spec said 60hp... Leaning toward watercooled.

None over the large case stuff seems to fit the small cases.

I think for the supermono it made sense to keep the weight down low.

For a scrambler...   I'd put the horizontal head on the vertical cylinder move the plant up and forward in a shallow sump case. 

I would use small end located piston, and just run balance on the flywheel... Harmonic damper or whatever.

The problem with the supermono design is width.

Have a look at one of the old singles.  They are absurdly narrow.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

The frame bends inward where the vert cyl was.
