I finished the bike last year. It's a 1954 Hawthorne, hand made springer front end. leather seat, with a 139cc 2 stroke out of
an old snow thrower. I sand blasted the frame then left it bare, The first belt between the motor and the jack shaft has a
spring loaded idler hooked to a brake lever. the second belt goes to a 20inch hoop bolted to the back wheel with 6 hand
made stainless steel brackets. sorry i don't have any pics of the build, I didn't know about this site at the time.
About your clutch maybe you could swap the springs. I bet you could find some to make it engage at w lower rpm,
If you get it to work at 1000rpm it would work on the jack shaft.
a few shots of my bike.
