got it working through an elaborate design of chain rings of mountain bikes and spacing. but without the idea of a clutch couldnt ride it with a person on it

we had it going upside down. with wheel off the floor. but needs a centrifugal clutch really and were all skint. we were pushing my brother down the road on it and trying to pull start it. all that resulted in was by brother almost coming off and leaving a lil scratch in his civic

we used to plumb rev cable of the quads(the under bar thumb one) the engine and all fine until you had to stop at 20/30mph in the streetlol,the good old days.we never used geared engine just rev and rips and they do the trick just as good:)

nowadays you'll get done by the old jobsworth fuzz same as mini motos etc

well done though reminds me of jeremy clarksons motorworld from india or cuba or some dodgy country like that
