I’m a longtime reader and a regular subscriber of your magazine. Send in edition of a photo made by me Motovilova, which often make field trips to set the mood… Motofloor, which was called “Shaitan-Arba”, produced from aggregates and a old moped and bicycles. The feature of structures is that both the rear (napadovska) the wheels of Motovilovka leading, and the right is driven in rotation by the engine D6, and the left pedal, through a separate chain drive.
The drives can operate simultaneously, helping each other. The starting is performed on the drive pedal with the clutch disengaged and the engine is started — on-the-go, the clutch is engaged (“pusher”).
Front (Bicycle) wheels turn off the steering wheel through the steering trapezoid.
