Here is my work in process Trike with a 49cc engine.
The neigbourhood kids are stress testing it for me!

Not enough torque for my 190 lbs + 70lbs of the trike. Kid at 90 lbs can start off without pedalling. Changed from 11 tooth to 10 tooth last night. Now its a little better. Can only fit 44 tooth on the axle. If only I knew! - could have made space for the 56 tooth.
Top speed I got was 59 km/h (37 mph) on a little bit of down hill. 53 km/h on flat.
Now I'm planning a jackshaft to use existing bike gearing.
