Motorcycle engine drive shaft spline???
Hi I got a quick question for all the gurus on here. I am building a buggy and I am going to have to run a chain drive forward from the motor, so I need to make some sort of a adaptor that I can attach to the drive shaft to allow it to step out past the case of the motor. My question is are motorcycle shaft splines all the same, and if are they metric splined or is there just a given standard. Hopefully someone will know something.

They all be different. You plan on an home made adaptor on a sprocket or a Dwarf car driveshaft adaptor?

You might get lucky but most tractor splines are bigger and thicker VS bikes having more finer ones.
