i messed around with my bikes today and took a little video of both of them running in case anyone has ever wondered what they sound like. The o.c.c. has a custom pipe and muffler that I built and it has a pretty throaty sound. the lowrider has an expansion chamber that i bought, and a muffler that i made. It sounds a little tinney compaird to the o.c.c.

I was wondering where the clutch was or how you engaged the drive ... pretty dang cool Rob .. it's just like a motorcycle clutch. the downside is that both bikes are only one speed. they do make shift kits for them, but a shift kit costs twice as much as the engine. you can make them 3, 5, or 7 speed with the right rear hub and sprocket (s). you have to run a jackshaft which puts the engine chain on the right side so you can run a multi-speed bicycle rear hub.
