What Tec engine do I have?

I'm not seeing any numbers anywhere, but I believe it's original to this manco night hawk.

I would say a H35. 1990's motor. Don't know much about those bikes.

 

[Minimichael]

Thanks. And I was just looking for a ballpark guess anyway because my bro is thinking of selling it.

X2 on H35. Carb on right, exhaust on left is one indication. HS40-HS50 have carb on left, exhaust on right IIRC

I would also add definitely not original on that Bird...

Do you know what would have been?

I'm not sure what the serial is on that engine, but I believe Bird was out of business pre-1985. I know there was a lawsuit against them in 1982 from employees who were wrongfully terminated.

Ahh, and the hs35 came after?

No, long before but that style H35 I believe is later. What's the serial number?

Would it be stamped on the block somewhere? Because I don't see anything on the shroud.

I'm going to guess it's one of these Power Sport h40.

Hey I'll take that! Thanks. It feels like a 4hp in fact, based on my experience with 2's and 3's anyway.
