How exactly does that thing work roger? are the pedals for looks?

It's a 65cc 2-stroke motor. The tank holds about 1/2 gallon so I should be able to go about 50 miles between fillups. The pedals are not just for looks. The motor has a centifugal clutch, but isn't strong enough to start from a dead stop so you take a dozen pedals or so then let out the clutch to start the engine. From there you just let the engine take over and you don't need to pedal anymore. Once it is started and idling you only have to take 3-4 pedals before releasing the clutch handle from a stop and the engine will take over.
