will do on the pics, there are a bunch of what i think will be interesting features to this project.

depending on how Looooooooong you are meaning, weight, weather issues etc. the staton drive could have many benefits.

you might realize that there is a 2 stroke aircooled 55cc engine readily available that does well over 5hp out of the box and is being built to 9+hp on a regular basis.

i'd think the staton would be 1 ofthe better ways to put that on a bike since you would have so much gearing lateral to work with.

you are significatly my senior and have been around this MUCH longer than me so i won't pretend to preach to you, but if you want to talk thru some of your thoughts and plans please shoot me a PM.
