Seems torque reaction might be a problem looking at some of the other videos. Would love to see it move under it's own power but I take it they're still looking for a transmission.

Re: the NOT A KATANA bike thread,
ahhhhhh, right, ive been oing through the build vids. its actually, or it appears to be, driv en by a hydraulic drive to the front wheel using a similar drive setup to a jcb digger (theyre hydraulically driven) thus doing away for gearboxes shafts chains sprockets bevel drives etc. i assume theres a bypass for tickover and then you just close the bypass instead of releasing the clutch. bonkers thing!
