Or any of the other goods that would come with water cooling....

Put that engine on a bike and you could do over 100 mph. I wouldn't recommend it. ( the speed not the engine
). The gear ratio is dependent what you want to do with it. I gear mine with 50 mph cruse speed and lots of low end. I would have to check it out to find the ratio I chose. I will look for the link for the gear ratio program I use. It works great. If you can weld or braze you will have no problem adding a radiator. Start with a strong frame and strong wheels and you will be fine.
