Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has seen a Motogp/Superbike style
starter for sale or has any idea what motor I can use to make
one? ( the race bike is a Bastard to start )

you mean the rollers that you park your bike on?

I've seen them built using a 3-tonne truck starter motor and an appropriate battery.

you can buy 2 conveyor belt rollers, (could be pricey)
and wels up a frame to hold them together.

or use a chainsaw motor and adapt a chain to turn a gokart tyre and the you push that up against the bike wheel while its on the stand.

try the Preston MCC

they do a lot of racing over there, so they will more than likely have many members that have them...

Chainsaw motor is not likely to have enough juice to do the job. The ones used by race teams look like they come off 5kW generators.

Hi Stereo

I was thinking of those but I drive a 4wd Laser
no good, I was thinking of The ones that drive
a go cart wheel.
