There's more than the cost of the reverse box as arguments against bike power. If you want your car for anything more than track racing, a car engine will be easier to live with. The bike's clutch is made for the total weight half the weight of a roadster, hence it will wear out quickly. A high-revving bike engine will be unpleasant in traffic or when just cruising.
