Also let me stress that I do not mean briquettes when I say charcoal. I mean hardwood lump charcoal made from some kind of raw wood. Briquettes have binding agents that can burn incompletely and add crud to the gas.
I went to electrical mechanical shop that repairs and they gave me one.I'll try to hunt for one of those smaller ones. I have some bigger multi V pulleys but the ratio would be too tall.
I have a antique Lauson 4 stroke, not really high rpm, took all the tins off, this old fart is out for fun not speed..........CurtWhat engine were you using?
Also here's the handlebars I made last year. They're sitting on the Seattle right now but they don't really suit this frame. Just 1/2" sch40 water pipe, comes out to 7/8" OD so it fits most motorcycle accessories. In the background is a nothing special 66cc build I did. Built from a Magna mountain bike frame, it's really tight in there. Runs great but the brakes are god awful so I don't ride it much.

Get better shoes for the brakes like Kool stop, nice job on the bars.
That looks like a sweet engine. I need to start looking for older horizontal shaft engines.I have a antique Lauson 4 stroke, not really high rpm, took all the tins off, this old fart is out for fun not speed..........Curt
