Now that is some out of the box thinking..

Please be careful on that thing. And post some videos of it if you can.

Right on spreetard My thoughts exactly.

both of you guys i respect alot ..
im figer that the spree motor is just for looks.. it wood blow up the spree motor if he use both motor at the same time or twist its self to peases.. so i figer its just for looks not to give real help to this thing and we no that the other motor could push it to 65 .. but not with me on it or near it.. hes wasting a good motor for a go-cart for this .. it wood be more fun on there then were it is ..

If I were going to try for 65mph both motors would be needed to reach max speed. The way I would gear it for top speed would be with a smaller sprocket (30t) it has a 54t right now. I have the 30t but its more fun with the 54 for zipping around. anyways the way it would work if I put the 30t on is the spree motor would be like 1st gear to get it going then the sidecar motor would be like 2nd gear. Once I hit 35 I would just kill the spree motor and let the sidecar motor take over. with the spree motor off the rear wheel is free spinning.

On another note the sidecar NEEDS its own motor to carry a passenger. I tried to give a ride with just the spree motor running and it struggles to pull all that weight....

The problem with this theory is simple; If you shut off the spree engine at speed, the clutch will remain engaged and the engine will continue to turn. The clutch will not disengage because it will continue to spin at the same speed. Seeing as it is a centrifugal clutch, it will continue doing it's job until the clutch drops below it's engagement speed. You'd have to go for it on sidecar power alone, which would be idiotic.

OK I get what you are saying. For a top speed run I guess I would have to start on a hill to get it rolling then just use the sidecar motor.

OK so I admit, the scooter/sidecar idea is not perfect but it was fun to build and its somthing I have never seen done. Its fun driving it around town, gets tons of honks and thumbs up (and they dont even know about the second motor). My main hopes was yall would get a kick out of it as I sure have. BTW it may be for sale soon

I'm wrong...he has posted in April of 2012 also...

I was only referring to an account retiring, not an actual death.
