Two wheel drive diesel motorcycle for farming

[MESSMAKER]

And a PTO.

After the war they started to look at how to keep the production up....making a tractor/car was a good idea.....just not good in practice for this country after the war. Might have worked in Europe better.

The first CJ series....Civilian Jeep....had the PTO....I think the CJ2 and CJ3 had them, but they went away after that IIRC. They are pretty collectable now.

I don't understand why a 540 pto is not an option. I can think of dozens of ways it could be useful. Generator,chipper,pump,snowblower the list goes on.

Electric powered front hubs will become more popular with electric motorcycles.

Even now it could be useful to have a few seconds burst of "front wheel drive" running off the (tiny) motorcycle battery.

I always thought so but never knew anyone that actually owned one.
