AMDparts · 08-27-2010, 04:30 AM

it was born because of the quest for a fuel efficient variomatic recumbent motorbike, my recumbent version from a chinacopy hondabike with a 150cc honda dylan drivechain.........

the second one, wich will be much more fuel efficient, is beeing created in 3d at this very moment. my variomatic recumbent is now relaxed doing every refill above the 100MPG and that's good enough for now. no more effort will be put in the variomatic becouse you don't want this type of gear for fuel-efficiency. the rubber frictionbelt is nice to drive but taking too much power to use.

the next one will be a 125 ( or less ) fourstroke with a maximum of gears, a full streamline wich will be engineered and tested before the built will be started. progress will be posted !

greetings from a very wet Netherlands,
