Nowadays people concentrate more and more on the comfort and operability of automobiles. Four wheel-drives in cars have become popular and are in demand in the automotive sector. But the advancement in two wheelers was limited. The concept of two wheel drive motorcycles was not successfully and economically implemented. Two wheel drive motorcycle is desirable in situations where there is rough terrain and high inclination roads which are tiresome and difficult to drive with the conventional rear wheel driven motorcycles. The two wheel drive bikes are apt for farmers, military applications, desert drive and so on. The lightweight 'all-mechanical system' is used to obtain two wheel-drives. Under optimum traction conditions, the rear wheel is actually driving faster than the front wheel and the one-way clutch within the system allow the front wheel to freewheel under these conditions. In our project when the rear drive has a failure that is when chain gets disengaged, then to move the motor cycle we do it with the help of a DC Motor, shaft and gear. A DC motor which is connected to the front wheel using shaft and gear is given power using a battery. Thus the motor cycle will move forward.

Self -compacted concrete is high performance concrete which has high fluidity without segregation which does not required vibration and able to flow by own weight. Glass is used in many forms in day-to-day life. It has limited life span and after use it is either stock piled or sent to landfills. Since glass is non-biodegradable, landfills do not provide an environment friendly solution. Hence, there is strong need to utilize waste glasses. . Utilize glass waste as raw material in concrete is give clean and greener environment. Using glass in concrete is an interesting possibility for economy on wastage disposals. Glass is an inert material which could be recycled and used many times without changing its chemical property. Glass is an amorphous material with high silica content thus making it potentially pozzolonic when particle size is less than 75 µm. The replacement of glass powder decreases the unit weight and porosity by the decrease in water absorption. The early consumption of alkalis by glass particles helps in reduction of alkali-silica reaction. The inclusion of fly ash in glass concrete reduces the alkali silica reaction and improves the workability and durability properties of concrete the workability of concrete is determined by using slump test and by increasing the concentration of glass powder decreases the workability of concrete. Therefore, the glass powder is used to some extent can replace the cement and contribute the strength development and durability characteristics.
