That is extremely cool. I had an SS50 very briefly as a field bike. No clutch to speak of (the previous owner didn't have a large enough spanner so had tried to remove the clutch with a chisel) and a very binary throttle. Used to have to peddle like fuck and bump it then fall off wherever you wanted to stop.

Love seeing the random ingenuity of bored engineer types Laughing

Alan Millyard makes some amazing engines/bikes with minimal tools. They all look "factory" ish though does go a bit OTT sometimes like his V12 Kwacker Shocked because he can Cool .
