I found this pic on the FB RDM group. The bike in the pic is supposed to be a second of its kind and still work in progress.
The poster called it the “Direct Drive.”
The owner is in the Philippines.
I don’t know if it’ll really work but the idea is pretty cool being as it eliminates the jack shaft path to gears. You would somehow need to extend the clutch shaft out far enough to put the counter sprocket on. The only way I can see this work is the have a special shaft fabricated.
It sure would be nice to have a set of gears instead of the single gear set up most of us use.
