Bike engines are designed to pull about 200 KG with 85 ish kg rider . They become unreliable when asked to pull 5-600 kg. Its equivalent to doubling the torque through the clutch /gearbox.
Love the sound but fully agree and the lack of torque due to the extra weight was very noticable in the Yamaha R1 engined Mini I went out in. It did not feel quick like my mind told me it should
