        No, I think he was just making one for himself, but said if it worked out he could maybe make more.

          I know a former member went by XSChop made some a long time ago. I do not recall enough the look of his unit to say if that is one of his. He sold several over the years.

            Yeah I remember I just read through the thread last week. The Yamaha logo he cut into it looks the same. Thinkin it was that guy who apparently ended up selling his bike lol

              Was wondering why the output shaft is that long. Not pleasing to the eye. Makes it look homemade IMHO. But to be honest I'm tempted too.

                Yeah I think that's kind of the way it is unless you were to cut and re-thread the shaft he used. I know some of the other chain drive conversions I've seen they put another bearing on that end of the shaft and kind of enclose the sprocket. I'm just curious where this lines up on the frame of the bike, and how wide of a swingarm would be able to be used. Perhaps it's possible to re-do the spacers and locate the sprocket outward further

                    Looks like it had no bids so it did not sell. if you wanted it you could send a message to the seller and see if he still wants to sell it.
