lawnmower engine in pocket bike frame

[mat93]

hey guys
i was wondering how to get the drivetrain of this thing going. at the moment the the shaft of the engine is like 6 inches out the left side of the frame and wondering how im gonna get it to hook it up to the wheel ive got the engine going, ive ported it, cleaned all carbon out of the head and ports and ive out a new carby on it and it sounds crazy(partially because it doesnt have a exhaust pipe). will put pics up tommorow

P.S i dont have acess to a clutch or tourque converter haha so its just plain old direct drive so i dont want any comments about these things

It's been done over at pocketbikeplanet.com. One of the boys dumped a 5.5hp Honda engine into a Cateye frame (search for mattyboi if you go over there), and I believe there are a few guys here doing the same thing. The Cateye pocketbike platform is perfect for an engine swap, with little to no welding/cutting needed. However, for the conversion, you would need a good clutch (so yeah, i'm commenting on it!) Make sure you get a good one, and build a clutch and chain shield for your leg - one of the guys had the clutch blow out, and just missed taking his leg off ....
