still working on it blew the electric clutch twice and broke the crankshaft off of the back of the motor ,had trouble shearing flwheel keys, now in the process of making a FNR gear box with no plantary or electric clutch that stabs over the original crank that has a stater ring gear built on it , Harleys have no starter or ring gear that mounts on the engine. Hopeing to have something done by Caddo but doubt it, work is picking up and have been busy,Had to find a counter rotating starter and drive gears off of a yamaha 150 lower unit and fit into a homemade gear box but getting somewhere. Will take pictures when I get a little closer. Marty |

Marty, I can send you some pics of the ring gear, stub shaft, etc of the setup I started a while back if that may help. |

hydralics have to much loss, they are practically indestructable but heavy and I would have to cool the oil some sort off way, anyway got final piece of the puzzle yesterday found a vw starter mini that had the same bendix drive as a harley drive spocket which I think is 8 pitch so I can now start on some drawings because the starter now has to go on the backside of the gearbox, I had to find a counterclockwise starter which there aren't many. Porche and VW. The ring gears I made had too much mass and wanted to keep spining when you hit something I needed a small diameter but couldn't because I had to clear the cylinders now I think I got something that will work. Will keep posted. I also decided to go all out and going to order a 120 cu engine, 139 hp@135 ft torque at 6000 rpm, 9.8 to 1 comp so it will run on pump gas , this way I will pitch the prop as much as possible and gear up belt drive and be able to turn about 3500-4000 rpm and still have over 90 hp, they all have the same diminsions and are pretty much inerchangeable.
