Is it wider than the standard Huasheng engine? How much wider?
It's 53.2 cc.....so the piston or connecting rod must be different.
Do you know what the deal is?
Some of us are confused as to which way is wider. My HS 142 measures about 9.5 between the pedals.I just measured the engine 9-1/2 and the width is 2 inches wider that the standard 142F-cc that measures out at 7 1/2
That is all the info I have at this point.

Is it wider between the pedals or wider between the downtube/seat tube? Or when you say 9.5 width, what part of the motor is facing you?

It looks to me that the pull starter hardware and flywheel face dictates how deep the shroud is.That would seem to be in the same place on either engine.
That's why I don't think this engine is any wider from clutch to starter.than the non genny engine.
Width, length, depth, it's all relative to what the person doing the measuring interpits as to where they are.
That's why I want Terry to clarify it.
So how do you know what I see or how good I see? All I asked for was clarificaton from someone who actualy had one in their possesion.Front-to-rear (and it's reciprocal) distance is called Length. If you call it width, you are doing it wrong.
Plain and simple. Not my opinion. Fact. You can see the extra width in the dang air shroud, sheesh.
Because you told me. You don't seem to know what your eyes see. You admitted and fully portrayed your confusion. I know what length is. I know what width is. I've done drafting, CNC ops, programming. I know the difference. You don't, so you kept repeating it, over and over. It's right in front of you.So how do you know what I see or how good I see?
But this goes all the way back to a couple months ago. In retrospect, I can understand why you'd rather someone tell you than see it with your own eyes, in numerous pictures.All I asked for was clarificaton from someone who actualy had one in their possesion.
Front to rear is length. Side to side is width. The flyer on the original genny thread said "This engine is 2" wider than standard". How can you not be sure? Oh yeah, that's right, you cannot tell the difference between Length and width. Hence I keep repeating it to you. You don't believe China, but you believe Terry Blow? C'mon, guy.I wanted to be real sure about exactly what he was considering the "front" of the engine for the dimentions mentioned, before I decided on buying one.
In all seriousness wayne z, you are frustrating me, because you are overthinking a quite simple thing. Repeatedly.Have some more ale man, and chill :~)
Yea I also have a lot of experience in all the stuff you mentioned also. That's why I wanted a definite answer from someone who possesed one of these engines. I know that not all people see the same picture with out discusson or/and illustrations.Because you told me. You don't seem to know what your eyes see.

You do? But you still mix up length and width. The irony of that is the person who is "possessing" it doesn't know anything about the motor.Yea I also have a lot of experience in all the stuff you mentioned also.

Front wheel. Rear wheel. Distance between is wheelbase, measured in length. Never width. You saying you're mixing em up now? What you say does not compute, because it is a logical fallacy. You're still overthinking it, IMO.You say front to rear is length. Whatever you are considering the front could be different in other people's eyes.
By who? Where? What? You're stretching now. Straw man argument. Nobody mounts a HS or Honda transversely. It's an inefficient way to get motorvated. I can show you 50x more proof proving you wrong than you can show proving me wrong. You're speculating and dodging the issue, sitting on your previous uncertainty like a hen on an egg.The motor could be described as being installed sideways in a bike by some.
I can. Because I pay attention to details. It's what makes me a great computer tech, what made me a great laser op, what made me a great mechanic. I can figure out front, rear, sides, what is length and what is width. You evidently cannot, and no one can beat it into your head, because you seem stubborn and inconclusive. Maybe it's wrong of me to assume people know which way is forward and which way is left, but I have common sense. After conversing with you, I've realized I've taken it for granted.Who can claim to know for sure that the actual front of this engine is where the exhaust is when it's sittin on a bench like in the pics?
In my experience it has always been very important to be sure that everyone involved was on the same page as far as what exactly was the front ect, no matter how much discusson it takes.
Speak for yourself. Not for others. You have enough trouble making logical deductions in this case. I apologize for saying that, but it's just my humble opinion. You're the one who cannot tell length from width. I've never seen anyone here do that but you.Easy to have missundsrstandings about that without drawings in front of you.
You just about derailed yourself with that one. Let's keep to the subject at hand, shall we? No, you're frustrating me because you. just. don't. get it. You don't know length from width. But you'll keep trying to talk yourself out of it anyway. But I like how you try to mix Pee Wee Herman and Freud there.I am not frustrating you. You are frustrating yourself. If one feels frustrated, or angry,envious or whatever bad emotions, it is something caused from discrepancies of their own mind, not by somebody else.
Rank speculation from the top of the fence again. "Definite" clarification? You make me laugh. Why, I will not say, because I don't want to offend other parties.So, some may think that you've had too much ale, and some may think you've not had enough :~) Everyone has a different way of seeing things. That's why I wanted definite clarification from someone who has one of these engines in their possesion.
You're causing a lot of worthless posts by messing up length and width. For 2 months now. This is not a pissing contest, this is you having prostrate trouble and refusing to admit it.Man, this pi ssing contest is causin' a lotta worthless posts LOL
