Thought you might be interested in a Briggs powered bike. 8hp so it would get along pretty well (Postie bikes only have 5hp). Looks like two centrifugal clutches sprocketed up for gears of some sort.

Yeah, it appeals to me with its set back pegs and down-and-at-'em handlebars, would even be easy to tuck away somewhere out of sight . . . but no. :lol:

Someone has gone to a fair bit of trouble rigging up the Brake pedal to the back Foot Peg..!

And put it on the wrong side for we riders of oriental machines.
I reckon it'd struggle to get a roadie, too. ;)

My money is on a simple primary and secondary chain set up and they are just covers to stop the chains eating your leg. I had something vaguely similar using a pump up scooter frame and Victa 125cc engine. Good for 30mph going by the copper who finally caught me.
