Build question

[Punxs]

I have been looking at building a bike with a motor for sometime now. I would like to go the briggs n stratton motor way and build it my way, then a kit. I see that almost everyone has gone with the drive on the left side of the bike. Would you be able to use the right side of the bike for the drive chain. Just use a jack shaft to connect the drive to the motor, or would it put to much stress on the rear sprocket? Just looking for ideas for now. Also can some of you please post some pictures of what you have done. Thanks.....

You could but you'll have to run a jackshaft to carry it across or run the engine in reverse. Though feel free to prove me wrong.

And take a look at this one shows how he welded a sproket right to the hub. Page 2&3 if you want to short cut. I did this 50 years ago and had realy good luck with it....................Curt
