TRANSMISSION. Two roller chains (on the left hand side of the machine) from sprockets on the engine shaft, one from each gear to a counter shaft in the bottom bracket, which contains the two-speed mechanism: The drive from the countershaft to the back wheel is by ¾ in. belt off a fixed pulley on the right hand side of the machine, midway between the two gears is the free engine position, which is passed through to engage either gear. The drive through both gears is direct, thus obviating that friction which is created when running through gear wheels.
