Default our 1st chaindrive....

Story starts the same....guy drops off a bicycle & a chainsaw.....
(note; we did this build totally, with materials on hand.)

here is where we started. http://www.motoredbikes.com/showpost...9&postcount=36

here's where we are now..... 3 chains....2 jackshafts between the 36cc engine and the rear wheel. total gear reduction 24.9:1

this bike pulls well from a stop & pulls away from my fastest happytime (Rusty)

here's some pics....comments welcomed!
