Those are small bore engines(26-27cc) making HP at way high rpms. Would probably have trouble on an MB making enough low end to get rolling unless a real low overall ratio was used, then the speed would come from twisting it tight. Work good on a Goped I imagine, or maybe a shifter bike.

Your right. The motor I had been looking at was 47.?cc but was somewhere else. I thought it was Dave's. Know, I wonder where it was? I guess it was another senior moment!

Here's the big 62cc from Dave's: bb199

And here's the 46cc powerhouse, also from Dave's Discount Motors: bb88xx

I own a couple of the 46cc CY's (GP460) from Dave's......amazing powerful 2-strokes with the best upgrades on the planet!

Thanks for the links. The Zenoah engines are about as good as it gets. We fly em in our R/C stuff, the old G-62 is a well proven power house, I have a G-23 in a gasser helicopter. Reliability is the issue with a heli and its never missed a beat. The 46 is unkown to our R/C crowd, but it its a Zenoah, it has to be great!
