This video is one of a kind. So far its the only video I found that has a jackshaft with sprocket on the right side. Thats what I want to do. Everyone else runs their sprockets on the left side of their bikes which I dont like having a chain on both sides of the bike. It just looks crappy. Two chains on one side looks better. Glad to see someone finally went the (difficult?) route of running the chain on the right side so now I can see it can be done.

First of all I gotta say, the camera guy did a awesome job, as far as the kewl bike, the clue to what's giving you trouble is you mentioned the bike has sat for a while, generally the fuel in the carburetor left for long periods of time will gunk up a carb. Either take it apart and clean it or replace it, it should run fine, also I love the exhaust system.

Use a simple siphon pump to remove the ethanol from your gas -- it's safe and easy - look it up. And always keep a new or known good spare carburetor cause it's always the culprit. 5 minutes to find out that way.

How has the Jack Shaft holding up? I hear different things about reliability, but does seem like the easiest way to motorize a fat tire bike.

I'm not entirely sure. The pull starter broke very easily.

This is stock exhaust. Stock exhaust is fairly quiet, but it does not have a muffler on it.

@@duckymomo784 I bought the cheap china model off ebay and amazon, it takes a lot of figuring out how to mount it and line it up, also had to use a heavier gauge chain, it kept breaking, its more a headache in my opinion, still haven't rode mine, none of the pull ropes work, and with a jackshaft mines too tight to push and start, seems my money pit is up to around the 900.00 mark and still no ride lol

I don't know. But we had to take the derailleur off of the bike because my bike's derailleur had an issue.
