Hi Guys, just out of interest, how do you get a bike engine to drive the prop shaft. You have a unit that is normaly chain drive, and want it to drive a shaft. As said just interested, I have not been converted. ATB Ray

You turn the engine around, so the sprocket that woukld drive the chain is in line with your prop. Then you stick a conversion sprocket that mates your prop directly to the sprocket that would drive the chain: Rescued attachment Bike Engine Sprocket Adapter.jpg

Actualy tried half a dozen searches, with no luck, trouble I seem to have is not asking the right question. Ray.

Strangely enough I came to that conclusion too, rather than the one Chris intended!
