i would think that the smell of gas and noise from the motor might scare the critters off from your area..

Nice! I do a bit of trail ridin' with mine, the 44t is almost useless - a 50t outa help... but in all honesty ya might wanna check out a shift kit (HD). I find myself awful busy when the going gets tricky what with the clutch/throttle/brake/pedal dance needed at really slow speed.

Other than that - it's GREAT! Welcome to the addiction BTW

I use a 49cc 44t on a 24" wheel mtb that goes great on Florida trails, even managed to pedal within 10ft of a flock of turkey the other day.

You may have to go with a jack shaft and cut the ratio in half. Heavy load and tight trails. I think the speed needs to be from 3mph to 15 tops
