I remember an article in MCN some time ago where they did a test ride on a KAWASAKI KLR650 diesel bike, specifically made for the US military. Pic below. It's a 580cc diesel engine and produces 33Ft/ib of torque, reaches 85mph and does 120 MPG. It's actually in use, and I think it was Kevin Ash who tested it, and quite admired the beastie. Also found a Dnepr-Hatz diesel; 1000cc sidecar combi (can't begin to descrtibe how exciting that must be to pilot ), and an MZ robin which was commissioned by NATO as part of a diesel project. There are also Royal Enfield diesels, various Harley's and a hybrid/electric sporty looking thing that does about 80mph and 0-60 in 6 seconds................. Wonder if your fillings fall out when stationary
