Slanted motor plate

[Toycartony]

Curious why did they slant the motor plate on some Minibikes? Was it to cover the jack shaft or for some other reason??

First and foremost, That is one PHAT CAT :drool:

One thing I read was that Tecumseh stated the engine could be run up to a certain angle without issue or warranty voids so mini bike manufacturers took advantage of that. by tilting the engine the oil is actually going to stay in more of a "correct" location in the block when it matters the most. Hard runs uphill, abrupt takeoff, etc. instead of sloshing to the back and drowning the cam and all that. thing I don't like about the setup on bikes like your cat is all that stuff under the frame and vulnerable.

Thanks Markus that makes sense, not sure if i buy it?? Not what you said but if it really works??? Seems if it was such a good idea it would be used more or still. But thats how we learn by trying new things
