Title: Dolmar Motor Bike

I doubt these would pass muster for very long before the law removed you and the bike from the street?

This is the Dolmar one. He used the bottom bracket where the pedals were for a jack shaft for a double reduction.

This kid did his Husky himself. He lets the clutch bell roll on the tire for the power transfer. Seems to work just fine?
The chainsaw was not even modified except for removing the B&C and the chain cover. The chainsaw is mounted backwards to get the direction correct.

Same here in south australia under 50cc no license required,but it must still have working pedals attached,An old bloke down the road built one using a ryobi brushcutter he went to the police station for legal assistance as to what the road rules are regarding these things
The reply from the cop was If they have there way they will be off the road
need to build something like it to add to my treddly as coming home up the hills is getting to be hard work and life is too short

I can see trouble for these bike coming here soon. Very few riders obey traffic laws. They run stop lights, cut onto sidewalks, and cut ahead of cars in lineups. When someone gets hurt, they will probably be forced off the road.
