Reverse idea for trikes

[Rottdoglover]

Saw this on a dune buggy that was powered by a bike engine. Minor machining to adapt flywheel to back side of pinion yoke. Make starter support good and solid. Looks like it would work on anything with a driveshaft providing you have a mounting point for starter.

THAT looks pretty cool!!

 

I could even fabricate something like that - now that I have a model.

That is setup on a 9" Ford axle it appears. It has 4 bolts the hold the pinion bearing retainer in and this appears to be mounted there.

What axle are you using on your trike? One of the popular units is a 7½ Ford, like a Ranger/Mustang/BroncoII. It would be easy enough to manufacture. Noisy as the devils band but effective.
