are you joking? 193 HP @ 60 Kg that is turbine land.....

Not sure about the BMW but most of these motorcycle in-line 4's have a
separate cylinder block and a split crankcase a la Lycoming/
Continental. All the expensive, hard to reverse engineer, power
tricks are in the cylinder block and heads.

So, learn about metallurgy and CNC machining. Make a custom crankcase
and crank for two in-line 4 blocks. Presto! A silky smooth, liquid
cooled, opposed 8 cyl 300 HP airplane engine. The motorcycle-type
balanced crank throws eliminate a need for a flywheel and the 5:1
planetary PSRU fits in the nose case.

2.0 liter is probably overkill so look for a 500cc in-line 4.
