Try a foot clutch, suicide style, and a hand shift that could be worked by what ever they put on the end of your arm. It would work particularly well with a sidecar rig so you would never be tempted to put the left foot on the ground at a stop.
With a savage, I would recommend a 50X 15 chain ratio.
One of my friends at the deep Forest has that sort of rig powered by a 4 cylinder excessive eleven Yamaha. He endo-ed an 1150 BMW 2 years ago and spent about 6 months from ICU to a recovery hospice.
He was really busted up bad. Legs, hips, back, arm, all broken at once.
It happened in the deep Forest area but during a different campout.
He also is one of the unstopables.
