russian moped engines

[insomniacshotrods]

Very close to the chinese engines we run,except carb is in front and down low. I love the look of the head on this. Ive seen other videos of them racing and they look like they could kick our butts lol...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h3FvREIt9Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qemzssOct1Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEe98CpEyBI

I still have one of the Russian engines. They are pretty slow, stock, right out of the box. But are very dependable.
Here's one I built & sold.

All this kits are slow compare to what it could be. Now two strokes are so advanced - reliable and powerfull I had Derbi GPR 49cc I still have it but it's 250cc now, It's a full size motorcycle/moped 250 lbs and it would do 60 milles with 49cc. I still have the engine from that bike almost like new, dont know what I'm gonna do with it, but put that on a bicycle it'll be crazy!!

In understand that the Chinese engines kind of descended from the Russion ones.

No ! Russia didn't come up with it first some other contry in Europe did, not sure who, Swiss or Gemany or someone in that area but yeah, this design is very-very old !

I'm thinking 1950's Russian until proven wrong.
