XLCH Rockets

The power and torque of the Sportster XLCH? was demonstrated at the LA Coliseum in 1960.  Only question is . . . I don't see a generator - so maybe it was an XLR? (or maybe just removed generator and blocked the hole with a plate?  I don't really see a magneto in there?  An XLCH would climb that ramp anyway !  That looks scary high . . .
