The big problem as I am sure you found out is the overall width of this type of setup. You need some seriously wide cranks to clear the gearbox and the pull starter housing which makes for some really bad Q factor and a hard to pedal bike. But it looks like you are having a good time with it and that is the main thing

just finished boring out the carb now it has some serious power

the shiftkit im using is easy on the gearbox. i go over it every month. looks like it going to last
