4-Stroke engine

Hi ddesens, once you try a 4-stroke, I will bet you will not return to the 2-stroke world (at least willingly).

I became a dealer for the 2-strokes a bit over 12 years ago, went to Whizzer in '05, Tried one of the VERY first Grube "Green Machines" when they came out in '05, and now have "Texas Whizzers", 2 Vintage Whizzer engines (one mounted one waiting), and a big "Herd" of little HF 142's with Q-Matics on them!

( I still do sell, and support the 2-strokes for those who want them, and I am happy to do so, I just prefer not to ride them)


Now, I've got the "WanderLust", there is a little 3hp Briggs upright out on the patio, a Harbor Freight 79, and 99 on the shelf, and, a little eho 35 hiding in a box, no way to turn without seeing little oil-filled crankcases!

Is there no end?

Mike

Actually rethought the whole thing after coming across a Schwinn OCC, wonder if a Lifan 250 would fit...

Hi Everyone,

Just waiting to see who is willing to judge the 'Build-Off". Looks like we have plenty of interest, so start taking pictures of your builds.

Have fun,

I am not entering, and would be glad to help judge if needed
(I am quite proud of my bike and see no reason to replace her )

Bad link to that thread.

Frame will get stretched anyway, I don't like the look of the Briggs and it doesn't have much of an rpm range. 3600 is about it for an industrial engine.Maybe a warmed over GX-35.

I'm in, just starting my first build so it won't be a show stopper. If I can build it and have it run reliably, that will be my top priority for a first try.

There is lots of help available here if you get in a jam. Probabally the first of many.
