Ive modified a daemon friction kit because of design flaws and now have two options i could work with. For one thing im staying away from gear reductions. Iv found a 9t sprocket for a 5/8 shaft and 48 is the largest rear sprocket ive seen that i can make work so i need a larger rear sprocket made or something. I also thought about the belt drive stuff ive seen on electric scooters and such but the tall gearing is an issue here as well except for the dual rim hoop pulley idea i saw some people do. In the friction setup its ok but im ambitious to say the least. The engine for this build is a CY460R no matter what configuration it is upon completion. The first thought was to just leave it friction but im pretty sure that ill eat tires really bad with 2.8 ft/lbs of torque and 4.2hp.
