Taco ID and suggestions;

#1
hello ; new here ,got this taco 100 or 99 ?? ser# 9H377 , from other photos I think =
1) rear wheel sprocket is on wrong side?
2) dont see brace on fork (hi- lited on pic) on other Taco's.
3) have a old Briggs 3hp ,but no keyway on .625" drive shaft just set screw hole. is there any 5/8 clutch with just set screw?
4) maybe put clutch on a added jack shaft, and set screw sprocket on engine?
thk/u,for any ID and suggestions,gus.

its a 1969=9....100=h...ser#377....both braces on forks were added...rear wheel needs to be flipped... should have a5hp briggs...should have a jackshaft if you want to go stock/this one is a 1970 100 rear shocks and tires are not original but the rest is basicly stock

Welcome. This is a great board. Several of us here are from Oregon, and a couple know lots about Tacos (not me). What city are you in?

Well that might be fun. I'll have to check my calendar. Is there a web site w/event details? I went to a supermoto motorcycle race at the kart track there a few years ago. Nice track.
