bent clutch arm engine... pk80 ???

abefroman · Sep 2, 2015

i bought a motor from a guy locally off craigslist. Just looking at it, it has the "bent" clutch arm. is this an indication that it is a PK80 motor ???

the reason I ask is because Lynn at www.custommotoredbicycles.com shows the PK80 motor with the bent clutch arm... take a look down the page a bit....

that bent arm is quite a bit longer than the standard arm and many people will fit one of those on to make the clutch easier to pull - they're a popular upgrade on a lot of motors

I wouldn't consider it an 'identifier'

I have a bent arm on one of my 48cc engines, I added it for the reason Crassius mentioned. Some clutch springs are stronger than others, the engine currently on that bike has the straight lever and is fairly easy to pull.
