    Comet 20 series TC on HS40

    I purchased a generic Comet 20 series symmetrical TC for my 1971 HS40. I was hoping this could just bolt on and go, however, there are a couple things that I'm not sure about. 1. The inner sheave of the TC sits extremely close to the engine and damn near rubs the guard that is mounted to the...

    HS50 cam in an HS40?

    I picked up an HS40 recently that has a reverse shaft on it. The engine is in great condition so I was thinking about swapping the side cover and cam out. I picked up a blown HS50 last week. Can I use the cam, crank and side cover from it on my HS40? It would be helpful to know before I pull the...

    What was this HS40 used on?

    I just picked up an HS40 for a good price. The serial dates it as 1969. It has the right throttle for a mini bike, but it has a round tank on top, and it looks original. Was it a kart engine? My pics aren't loading, but the engine is white with a balloon decal. The round tank looks like a...
