I use a bike brake lever and cable for a gas pedal. Hooked right to the carb.
My latest one has a 8inch front and a 2 inch rear pulley
It is a old rally.
15hp
Look at some of my videos. They are short.

One highly modded the other a hybrid lawn tractor/ atv but still mid build. The donner atv was an older 185 Suzuki, I built the frame myself to fit the tractor body parts but to run on the atv suspension. The rear axle is solid and had a large drum brake... The normal roper has a welded rear end and you brake by gearing down lol
