gears adapter on stock sprockets?

You're going to have to deal with poor chain alignment if you're trying to shift the engine drive chain from one sprocket to another. It works on the pedal side but the sprockets and chain are designed to be derailed and run off center. Not true on the engine drive side.
If you want to change gears there are kits available to allow that. Search for 'shift kits' and you'll find several to choose from.

Not really.
With 2 sprockets on the rear wheel connected less than 1/2" apart (~1/4" center to center) from each other, over a length of ~2ft is a very small degree. Much smaller than a mountain bike has with it's 7 rear gears.
Ok, he basically uses an o-ring between sprockets, a simple and effective solution.
Now the only thing is to find a derailleur kit that's easy to install...
The old 70s Honda CT70s and CT90s had these. It was two sprockets on the rear wheel. One was your everyday sprocket, and the other was your "hill climb" sprocket. You had to carry an extra bit of chain to use it.
But, I wonder why you don't just get a SBP jack shaft and call it good? You'd have 3-7 gears to choose from.
