Its very small. About 4 inch wheels. The engine looks suspiciously like a lawn mower engine mounted sideways on a homemade frame mount.

Thanks for the help!

I think you nailed it. Maybe someone swapped out the front forks?

This strikes me as non-domestic. Possibly European? Italian maybe? It just doesn't really look like Japanese. Cool suspension

Cool thanks!

I'm pretty sure the engine is wrong. The tank and canted engine mount makes me think it could be something interesting

Thanks. Are these cast iron rings in the aluminum cylinder?

Thanks. Did Tecumseh used a trade name for these cylinders?

You're right. I'm sure it's not Nikasil. I was just using that term in a generic sense. What did Tecumseh call the coating process? Anyway, same question. Will the stock piston and rings work with Nikasil plating, or do you sleeve the cylinder?

This engine is an alloy Nikasil cylinder. There is no steel sleeve liner. Are you guys sleeving these cylinders or getting them replated? Where do you guys send them for replating? There are lots of places that do it, but I want to know if you use someone specific that caters to side valve...

I don't know yet. I am just getting parts together, and I hate to reuse it like this.

Can this coil assembly be rebuilt? The plates of the steel core are spreading apart from rust forming in between. I'm assuming that I can't just buy a new one.

Thank you very much. I think it is a Sportsman 600

Is there a thread for Go-Devil? I would post tech pictures of mine for other people to reference. Just to help others identify what they have
