306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

Right well i sometimes get ideas in my head, so the past few weeks i came across a video on utube of a starter motor on a push bike, then thought "ive got my old 1.6 starter in the garage" so the hunt for a bike began.
then my bro said his missus was getting rid of her bike for FREE !!!

so a hour or so and this was the result





Still needs work, gonna do abit more this weekend then test drive it

I would pay to see that, and like a 200m extension cord. #chrishoywho?

needs a drop, be funny to see it do burnouts.

Epic!

would it not have been better to mount the motor on the bottom of the frame so then you can keep the suspension?

And you could have used a shorter chain to the original crank sprocket and kept the gears?

Motor was to hard to line up if it ws mounted at the bottom and the original cranks and gears were fuked that why it wad free

Damn you. I was going to do this with a old 5hp lawn mower engine I had!

Do it anyway! Petrol v Electric

I can vouch for the fact that a starter motor can run for at least half an hour on a Bosch super battery. Just make sure your around when it's cranking...

That has got a trip to casualty written all over it.
