The height thing is about your Permitted Development rights (ie building you can build without Planning Consent), so is a Planning matter (the people who control what and where you can build). You are probably aware of the differences, but I thought I should make that clear for readers who weren't so aware.

Our neighbour had a concrete truck on the main road and a dumper to move the mixed concrete round the back to the garage plot.
It was all done in no time.

Next stage is either learn sketchup over the winter or just use 2D AutoCAD as I use that day to day. I knocked this up in a couple of hours.
Do you guys start the drawings off like this or draw the individual beams & joists first and build up from there?
And if you're only going to build it once you might as well have everything in

They start at as little as £130. Could be built in to the build cost.

My R50, has two long bolts through the lower engine and frame, so all you do is carry the engine between your legs, step over the frame, let go of one end and put that hand through the frame and grab the engine again, lower the engine onto the two lower tubes, then go outside, rub your hernia and swear a bit!!

I’ve already got one of those. Great bit of kit but on the bike I’m working on at the moment you need to have the engine on one of those and hoist the frame over the top and then lower it down to line up the mounting points. Nothing’s ever easy is it

So, provided you don't allow this point load to fall on a single-depth plate mid-span between two studs, then there isn't the slightest problem in 4x2 framing supporting it
