electric scooter motor

Motor was salvaged from a Quick Kart 2000 (walmart cart pusher) the original motor feed into a beefy transaxel. For whats left of the label on the motor, it looks to have been manufactured in 2004, by statute electric inc. rated at 36VDC. it's 5 inches and weight around 30-35 pounds. Not sure what kind of amperage it can handle but it seems to be a quality built motor. I took it apart for cleaning and to check the brushes, not to much ware. I plan on repainting the casing, but we can cross that bridge when we get there. I removed the electric motor from the transaxel. First isssue to solve is how to get a drive sprocket on it, the output shaft is a 3/4 inch twisted shaft. I don't think there are any standard sprockets that will fit this. Any Ideas?
