Has anyone done a chain to belt conversion? I am building a whizzer style motorbike with a china engine, but the engine has a sprocket for a chain. If anyone has done this conversion, could you give me some insight n how you did it? Pictures would be very helpful? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, timeflys

you could always make a pully to fit that shaft and run it to an idiler but you would hafta chenge the ratio to get any speed liike if you run it to a gbe size ring

I assume you have a centrifugal clutch with a sprocket. The clutches are available with a belt drive....on e bay for one. Or you can run to a jackshaft with a sprocket input, and belt output.

China motor to belt huh? That's a neat idea. If you get it going I'd really like to see what you come up with.
