The 2 piece wheel would need at least a solid spacer for the middle, to fit a wider tire.

But the clutch manufacturers need to buy their kids braces.

How does engine horsepower / sprocket size relationship factor in? One of the best ways to understand is to get on a 10 speed bike and try taking off on each gear. I know in the rc world small driving large seems to be less stressful on electric motors. Applies to all motors, even human ones.

Not the best idea, but pull the plug and stuff the hole with pull rope type rope until you can loosen the bolt.

I have bolted a flat piece of steel to a sprocket, that I needed a larger center hole in, then found center. I used a hole saw to drill the sprocket. You may need to replace the center drill bit with a smooth 1/4" shaft to keep the holesaw from walking and reach deep enough. Use plenty of oil or...

Wrap an old v-belt around the outer bell of front drive pulley and clamp with vice grips for a handle. Now you can remove crankshaft bolt.

I would put as large of a sprocket, on the input to trans as possible, to help reduce the size needed on axle.

Need to move engine to the left. Some use an adaptor motor plate.

#4 goes to battery positive to charge battery.

Have not had a clutch lever for over 20 years and it pulls smooth, even with the sidecar, in high range with no problems. It is a little quicker in low. The Calli with the 1100 engine and only 70,000 miles is faster. Fifth is only good above 80 but fourth will pull to 100mph.

The Vert with that heavy aluminum body sidecar will still surprise some 1200 BMW GSA riders. I've been known to show up right on their back tire at 75mph on gravel.

Here's the purple one.

For some reason the pics did not come thru.

The TCU purple one is a '76 Convert and the green is a '93 Calli.

See if this works.

Pics after I grow wings, so I can get them off my phone onto my computer. I can put together computers, but I have a hard time getting them to do what I want.

I've been tearing things apart and putting them back together for more decades than I care to admit to. Started with bicycles, then lawn mowers, cars and then motorcycles. Some have been blends of cars and motorcycles. I have two Moto Guzzi's with homemade sidecars, one even has KTM 640 forks...

You provided the justification, when you stated it struggled to take off. The clarification will come, when you experience a lower gear ratio. Those that have responded to you are expressing their knowledge of what they have experienced, by trying different ratios. It takes knowledge to make...

You might look at the rear drive from a shaft driven 4 wheel atv.

The steering shaft angle is the only difference, as the both have have tie rods running from shaft to spindles. Look at the lower ends while watching how the tie rods move. This should tell you what you need.
