ABSTRACT:
An improved drive arrangement for an off the road motorcycle having a rear wheel that has a width substantially equal to the width of the motorcycle frame. The rear wheel is supported by a trailing arm and is driven by a drive that includes an intermediate shaft that is rotatably journaled on the trailing arm. One end of the intermediate shaft is driven from the engine output shaft by a drive shaft and the other end of the intermediate shaft drives the rear wheel through a chain. The chain is positioned a substantially greater distance outwardly from the longitudinal center line of the motorcycle than is the drive shaft so as to afford a good rider position and relatively narrow width.
