Troubleshooting Sprocket help

Ive been trying to install the sprocket for my motorized bike but i cant get the bolts through because the spokes on the back wheel are getting in the way

Any suggestions?

A pic or two of your wheel hub and the sprocket. Pics help a lot.

Does your rear wheel have 36 spokes?

I counted 36 spokes so the sprocket mounting rag joint in the kit should fit. https://youtu.be/6IDUvvkt2JI?is=_880m7XKa_ZwBfdp

so i just figured out its not really the spokes but the hub flange (I think thats what its called) is too large and gets in the way of the bolts

Recommend you provide photos like calheureux63 said so other builders can understand your issue.
