DON'T!
Years ago the indians designed a desiel powered motor cycle got terrific mileage
but had a top speed of 47 miles per hour, 6 HP, 11.1 foot pounds torque.

lound, smelly, slow, heavy, and ugly...
interesting idea but you gotta ask why bother.
If you are really serious google "VW lupo"...
"Smart" offers a turbo desiel...
Mercedes A class the small one
Europe leads in small disiels....
The Lupo and Smart are turbo three cylinders....
the Lupo gets close to 80 MPG
(If i remember correctly)
