I assume this is going to be completely ridiculous and will need a wheelie bar!
DD liked 7:1 with clutch. I assume 5.4 with TC should be fine.

80cc Skateboard

So if YOU were going to make a 80cc 2.5HP "longboard" skateboard for a 275lb adult...

I was thinking 113mm (4.5") Off Road Mountain Board Wheels.
12T Clutch
24T Axle Sprocket

3600 RPM = 24 MPH

Do you think this gearing could work? Remember it will be Flintstones'd" to get moving.

Or

12T Clutch
36T Axle Sprocket

3600 RPM = 16 MPH
4800 RPM = 21.5
5400 RPM = 24 MPH


Also whats the best way to drive something that turns like this.
I'm guessing single wheel drive would be better than live axle??

He said I could use the bike. But the snow thrower looks like it fits so nice! Who worries about snow in Chicago with this Global Warming stuff??

Possible home for the Tecumseh eventually?

IDK, Idk what it's called lol. It was like a skateboard, but just one wheel, I guess he leaned forward to go farward, etc. Like a Segway, but no stupid stick sticking up.

He had to be going 15-20 mph, he was cruising along on a residential street lol.

I wonder if there is a Forum for that?

Oooh look

Heck. I don't even read my own threads. I don't know how I missed this. My buddy was asking if I was going to move forward on the bicycle project (maybe a home for the 5HP Tecumseh?) so I went back here to look for a pic.
And now you have me thanking people for jokes who have only posted 71 times since 2009. lol

Thanks.
