Thanks Richard I really enjoy learning the history of the Twister almost as much as I enjoy working on it. I live in Montana so it is a good way to pass the time on those cold days.
ThankYou so much Mountain gote 54 that is great information. I'm stripping the Twister down to the frame now engine is setting on the bench ready for rebuild I will keep that number handy for sure.
Oh ya I see what you mean I looked at a picture of another one the axle is moved back. It should be In the front hole. If you notice it also has 2 rear sprockets. Makes me wonder if it is a prototype? Thanks Davis for pointing that out. I thought maybe it was that way for a ski. So many...
Thank you Richard it has a Briggs and Stratton flywheel cover on it. Embossed B/S on it. I don't think it would interchange on a Tecumseh would it? And do you have any idea were I might find the serial # on the bike frame it was repainted and it might be hidden from that or maybe It just don't...

Hi guys so after some CSI investigation I found the twister sticker under the paint and other sticker. Thank you so much for your help mistery SOLVED. You guys really now your Mini's.

And thank you Robertc for helping out. I think it was worth all of the months of begging and 200 dollars to get my hands on it. Going to start restoring it this weekend.
Thank you sport king Eric. I have spent many a long hours looking for that info on the internet with no luck. I thought extra sprocket may be for a track set up I read somewhere other models of theres had as a option but not sure. Just got to say this site is the greatest....
