Dan Smith built this roller starter for his Velo Roarer project. That bike has been sold to the Solvang Museum in California. The buyer did not need the starter so Dan kindly gave it to me.
It is bolted to the floor and starts the 10.8 to 1 1360 easily, provided a big battery is hooked up. The car battery was enough for the 9 to one Rapide, but wouldn't start the 1360. For that I borrow a battery from the F350 diesel or a similar big battery from a JD crawler.
Then the bike fires instantly. Four plugs and an extra hot twin driver Pazon ignition help.
This is not an easy bike to kick over.
