LF's Buggy Bike got a CVT today!!

[Large Filipino]

I'm still giggling here and it's not even fully installed yet!
I got this CVT for my birthday still not here till May but it's here now.
I used this guy:
Fancy Scooter: Gas Scooters and Electric Scooters Retail and Wholesale
I couldn't use Pay Pal there's a glitch in his site when you register but it came Fed Ex within 2 days.
Check out the pics below and the video.
The 10 tooth sprocket the Titan kit comes with is a bolt on. The mounting bolts and the clutch bell it's all a bolt on,man.
I do want to say I'll leave Cronus alone for to me it's plenty fast but I could rather easily put one on Cronus too!
I'm really mixed up here as to what wheel to put on. This CVT has A LOT of drag.
A freewheel would really make this shine.
But my other option is a fixed sprocket but I gain a front drum brake.
I'll figure it out.
I'm so excited I think I'm gonna start tearing it down so I can flip the carrier.
So for all you speed junkies out there,here's a tranny for the Titan kit.
But I'm thinking you're really gonna need a freewheel.
More to come when it's all put together!

YouTube - Buggy bike CVT Titan initial install

2nd pic shows that this tranny isn't really that big by looking at my hand or something.
3rd pic shows the Titan sprocket. the c clip wouldn't go on but that sprocket has a tightening nut.

Lf, You Will Like The Cvt. The Free Wheel Is Worth The Trouble. Use A Rear Wheel With The Cassette Off And Just Screw Your Free Wheel Adapter On. The Rear Hubs Are Not Much Wider. The Sprocket Will Need A 2 1/8" Center Hole. You Can Drill Holes If You Need In Your Sprocket. Later Buddy Ron PS, I just looked at your vid, that coaster should work. congrates

Okay so I ran into a little glitch.

Picture 1 shows the sprocket alignment that's cool though because I can just flip that huge sprocket
around and it will line up but with the engine all the way up it the chain won't clear the housing.
I want to retain the 3 speed for now so I can choose what permanent gearing I want to go. This is the early Titan aluminum carrier.

Picture 2 shows the current Chrome Titan carrier I had laying around. Sorry it's a little dirty. OH LOOKY HERE!! Extra mounting holes!! With this I can have the sprockets almost vertical of each other!!

Wife is the boss of the house. My host home guy is on a home visit but it's cold out anyway.
She wants us to go see family today.

So that's all for now.

I'm excited.

Thanks to a couple of quick PMs to LF....I ordered my CVT last night. I decided to try it in lieu of the Comet TAV. With this one I wont need to sleeve the output shaft on the Titan up to 3/4". Im looking forward to this new direction. I think the results will be worth all the figuring and debating.

I thought about mounting it that way and possibly doing away with the jack shaft but the jack shaft in
my bike is important for gearing and alignment.
I think I have it all worked out though. Tonight I gotta do some computer work then early tomorrow
if it all works out,I RIDE!!!

What kind of freewheel are you using?


I am thinking of using one of these Heavy Duty ones with their 48 tooth sprocket on the rear wheel
