Thanks for checking in, Sam. I think that the HD trans is the right choice over a CVT.

The CVT poses too many problems. The Ultima 5-speed transmission solves many of the issues of using a 13hp engine to power a motorcycle. Namely, the torque multiplication needed to move the 300lb motorcycle up to, hopefully, 70mph.
Right now, I'm trying to decide between left-hand drive or right-hand drive. Also, whether or not to use the KLR swingarm or the KX450F swingarm. Lots of fab work to come.

A Baker right side drive would be cool, but spendy.
