    Get the chain deal solid.get you smaller rear sprocket. Little cv fine tuning if applicable .might end up the best set up ever for tooling the town. Sure seemed super smooth and definitely a motor saver..baddest looking pull starter ever kinda seen. Must have missed video of that set up. With cv you can fix the engine clutch 100 % locked up ? Yes. No. Great job

      Yes the engine clutch area is 100% locked up it's where I mounted the pull starter as well 😂 custom clutch output shaft. yeah I was thinking 30t sprocket it has tons low end power. I had to make many custom parts foundry wise to pull this off. I used 2 old end mill shanks poured cast iron weights. It's the secret sauce to making CVT work correctly of the engines already internal gear reduction. Then poured an aluminum plate to match up my pull starter. (Tons of short videos as I built it) never bothered to even make videos. To much hate over every build. Gets way to toxic with idiot elites as I call the group 😂. It's why I always said I loved your channel's best info on stuff around. Don't take no shit from the idiots Brian.

      @@BuildBreakFixI don't no crap about alot of stuff. But the mph stuff and assholes is exactly why I stopped messing with bicycles. The cv set up for me sounded ideal. Sure seems like a engine saver. Once you were at speed and able to let off the throttle and still maintain same mph with about 1/2 the rpm. That's when I thought super cool set up. People are clueless about function. Or unrealistic. If you can gear it so it runs ehh 40 to 50 and still pull like it does.that definitely is a cool set up. Great job.

      It wouldn't be impossible to machine a mini comet style cvt but it would take a lot of time on a mini lathe. CNC would be faster but super expensive unless you are a CNC machinist with after hours access. On the bright side: it is relatively easy to machine a cone and a splined shaft, just time consuming.

      @@BuildBreakFix right on Brother.
      Find out the right gear ratios and such.
      It'd be cool if there was a smaller one that could be designed and easily adapted to these type engines.
      I'm not one to be always thinking about money or anything, but I bet that you could sell lots of them.
      CNC router all the parts, would probably be no easy feat.

    • @ShinyUmbreon765
      @ShinyUmbreon765 Před 5 měsíci

      The design of a cvt is simple, getting one made in the usa for less than 600 dollars a unit isn't.
      Ideally the cvt would be on the right side of the engine, and replace the internal gear reduction. A 2:1 range that's from 8:1 reduction to a 4:1 reduction would work well for most builds.
      However since cost is the concern, replacing the internal reduction with a stock comet clone and putting a pull starter on the magneto side is better. If I remember right the pawls are what fail followed by the cord on those. You would need a big sprocket on a jackshaft after the cvt.
