David,

Thanks for all the great info, its just what I was looking for. One thing=
I don't understand though. Why do you have to use the Generator and not =
the alternator already on the motor? 20

frame?

Yep, there's one in mine


 I want to use the Eldo tranny, clutch, flywheel and rear end with the
1000 cc engine.

I used an SP 1000 motor with an Eldo 5-speed there are no differences
that I noted.

 Will the convert starter work with the eldo flywheel and ring gear?

I think not, I used a refurbished Eldo starter.

 Will the tranny bolt up to the 1000 cc engine?

It will to the 5-speed motors I don't know that much about converts.

 Any other obstacles you can point out would be great too, thanks!

The alternator big twins had different front motor mounts and require
welding on the frame. To put in the generator takes a small amount of
drilling and tapping on the top of the motor plus a little adaptor made
by Teo Lamers and sold in the states by Moto Int.

I had fun putting mine together and would do it all over again if I was
doing a loopframe.

David
