Speaking as a former round engine operator and current sportbike rider.....

I'm thinking that thing is WAY dangerous. Imagine how oily the back tire
must get.

I'm thinking "photoshopped," as in "How is the front
yoke attached to the rest of the machine" and "Why
does the rear edge of the left shaft look so uneven
where it meets the engine?" not to mention "What
does that engine do for cooling?" and "Will the tank
run dry before engine heat causes the fuel to boil?"
and "Maybe it's my eyesight, but why don't I see
a wiring harness?"

That's not the mo'bike in this thread. At least this engine is
orientated for cooling. Same can't be said for the rider, tho'.
