Twin motors driving two stacked gear boxes (from riding mowers?). To drive a wheel. Wonder what kind of speed, if any, it got? From what I've seen, those would be each a 2hp. rope start, Briggs &Stratton engine. I used one myself, on a mini bike in my youth. Used the same motor to drive a live shaft (mounted behind the motor) via pulleys, to drive the 3in centrifugal chain clutch to the rear wheel. Got 20mph out of this.
