Manco Ez Rider - Convert???

[JaggerWolf]

So I have a Manco Ez Rider with the torque coverter system - Can this be converted to a centrifugal clutch system? The reason I ask is I have a newer motor and centrifugal clutch and would rather switch it over if possible instead of buying new parts for the existing system.

Any help or pointers would be great!! Thanks!!

Just put the old clutch on the new motor, because torque converter are better than centrifugal clutchs

It's not that TAV's are better than centrifugal clutches...they aren't. The demands placed on them are different.
Your Manco utilizes the TAV for a reason. Loading.
A centrifugal clutch cannot be expected to handle the loading the Manco (over 300 lbs.) will place on it.

Thanks for the info - Guess I will invest in the parts for the old system.

Yeah. You cannot do a direct swap without changing the gearing
