I've cut them off flush @ the frame rails w/a sawz-all (20-30min job w/the drivetrain out). IMO, there's no real need to remove the pieces riveted to the frame since they're out of the way (other than looks).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
