    2 speed, how does it work?

    You can buy a one-way bearing clutch and press it into a sprocket. For example https://www.mcmaster.com/products/one-way-clutches/ Another example https://www.formsprag.com/products/General-Purpose-Clutches/Bearing-Envelope-Design/CSK-Series There are #35 sprockets with one-way clutches...

    2 speed, how does it work?

    Yes. When the secondary clutch engages, the jackshaft spins faster than the 1st gear ratio. The one way sprag clutch freely allows the jackshaft to spin faster. The transition from 1st to 2nd gear is smooth.

    Fox Doodlebug 2-Speed Conversion

    There are 3 PDF files showing the differences in the Comet 2-speed setup (like my Sears minibike had) and the much better Fairbanks setup. This link is posted above, my first attempt at remembering how my Sears minibike was built. I rode it as a teen in the 1970's and was trying to illustrate...

    1970 honda trail 70 will not start--help

    The headlight and high beam indicator on your CT70H are powered by AC from the stator, so the engine must be running. The other lights are powered by the battery. The dim at idle can be helped by cleaning all terminals, grounds and switches, running a lead acid Yuasa battery and installing a...

    Alternator and Wiring Help

    Thanks Dave! Good seeing you here as well. Wired a hauler for a farm a while back, but it was repowered and stripped of electrics. I love the 2 wheeled Heald bikes because I am six two and over 200 lbs. plus a big Briggs flathead is about my speed. @chatten63 if there is a history of things...

    Alternator and Wiring Help

    Dave that is an excellent Briggs & Stratton document. Interested to see how the Hauler is wired - any Heald for that matter, as I want one. Heavygs here is a generic dual output wiring system with lights, but your stator has just one AC output, correct? I can edit this diagram to fit your...

    Looking for an electric motor expert

    Metal Man, a circular saw motor generally takes 2,000 + Watts to start (plugged into 120 Volts AC) and consumes at least 1,000 Watts or more running. Heavy duty circular saws are rated for 15 Amps, which is 1,800 Watts and maybe over 2HP at the blade. I agree with you, a scooter motor and...

    Looking for an electric motor expert

    Alternator motor needs massive Amp capacity controller. It will turn and move on the 65 Amp device, but will be slow pulling you, batteries and a bike. Perhaps run a universal AC/DC motor (for example a common circular saw with brushes). Those will run on DC straight from batteries. Bolt a...

    charge coil, i got one, but what about regulator/rectifier?

    Safe enough: over 65 million C70 Honda Cub/Passport motorcycles have this exact battery-regulated charging system. Not saying its ideal or even defending the design. Fact is, charge coil output is so slight it never catches up to the 11 Amp hour battery used on those bikes. My reply was...

    charge coil, i got one, but what about regulator/rectifier?

    The charge coil feeds the Anode (+ or non-striped end) of a half wave rectifier diode. The Cathode (- or striped end) of the rectifier diode connects to the + terminal of the battery. Like this https://www.OldMiniBikes.com/search.php?search_query=honda%20rectifier&section=product Jon The...

    303 Wankel Azusa Build

    I see Solidworks in there! Learning it myself, have not made assemblies that come apart and rotate like yours. Keep going on it, this is a cool build.

    Electric Mini

    The hole for the horn looks deliberate. Maybe for a factory or yard with moving machinery, hangar duty or someplace busy. A car battery would let it travel a decent distance at low speeds.
