A diesel engine is a biodiesel engine. If you have a diesel engine, you can fill it up with biodiesel anytime.
the biodiesel should be used in the diesel engine, and there are some biodiesel motorbike has been produced such BWM http://www.doinggroup.com/
Biodiesel most certainly does NOT ruin your engine. Most engine manufacturer in the world approves the use of biodiesel in their engines, unless of course your engine is not made to run on diesel fuel. Gasoline engines should not be ran on Biodiesel.Actually, if you don't change out your fuel pump, injectors, and fuel lines to accommodate the much thicker biodiesel fuel, it CAN ruin your engine.
If it has a diesel engine you can.
You often only find biodiesel in the Midwest or areas where corn is a big market. Biodiesel is made out of corn and that's why. Biodiesel will make your diesel engine get better gas mileage just so you know.
Any diesel engine can run on quality biodiesel. Older engines even better. New engines can loose their warranty if you use biodiesel, so please check.
Biodiesel is a type of diesel fuel made by refining ordinary vegitable oil. It can be used in almost any engine that petrolium based diesel can.
It could actually be said that Biodiesel had its origins with the invention of the diesel engine, as the diesel engine was designed to run on Biodiesel. Rudolf Diesel, inventor of the Diesel engine, designed a single 3 m iron cylinder with a flywheel at its base which ran on its own power for the first time in Augsburg, Germany on 10 August 1893. August 10 is now International Biodiesel Day, to commemorate this event. The diesel engine was originally intended to run on bio-fuel such as vegetable oil, rather than the petroleum-based diesel fuels mainly used today.
There are several alternative fuels for a diesel engine. Some alternatives include Biodiesel and vegetable oil.

Yes... it's generally better to use it in a pre-EPA2010 engine, and know also that you'll probably need to replace your fuel filters shorty after switching to biodiesel, as it has a detergent effect which releases the sediment at the bottom of the fuel tanks. Be aware also that with a full biodiesel solution you'll experience a 12 - 20% decrease in BTUs produced, meaning less power.
