If you are good at fabricating, it could be done. Since the weed eater drives a shaft and a right angle gear set, it could be modified to work on something like a Razor scooter. You would need to get a centrifugal clutch and engineer the whole layout. I could envision the engine under a fabricated seat and the shaft driving the clutch with a sprocket and chain to the rear wheel.
hi,i would imagine that the torque of a weedeater will not be enough to propel a scooter bicycle etc forward bearing any weight on it whereby the chainsaw might just do the trick
