Well, tis amazing what you can find in the dark recesses of the farms around here laugh Theres some strange folk about. This one came out of a Centurion tank a couple of years ago and had been stored prior to becoming useful.
I know of some more should anyone be interested.

laugh No, the beans was to give someone a point of reference as to the physical size of the engine.

No secrets, all very basic.
Engines are linked by throttle cables being connected & throttles balanced
The 2 bike engines/gearboxes have the gear linkage joined together to a single shift, clutches linked by single bike m/cyl.
No diff, each engine drives one rear wheel, has never caused me a problem & would only do so I think if it lifted a rear wheel - you would have to be very brave, talented or stupid to acheive this, I haven't despite much provocation!
Wanted to put an electric reverse on but simply ran out of room, it's all a bit cosy at the back end. Fortunately at around 600kg even a wimp like me can push it backwards if essential, not a good idea to park downhill against a brick wall tho'!
