Wedge into the joint and wrap COUNTERCLOCKWISE! Cheap workaround for starting a Sachs Saxonette engine without a recoil. Not the safest way to ride. Wear shoes! Not the most dust and dirt resistant for the flywheel and points, but it is what it is. It works.

Saxonette Automatic For sale $150. Shipped. It has a custom adapted pull start from a chainsaw that gets the job done. The dogs on it tend to cause problems if your not gentle with it but a new stronger set would be easy enough to make. I didnt make any modifications to the engine to suit the...

I am sourcing some new crank seals for my fleet of Sachs Saxonette 50 2-cycle engines. I've got a few NOS seals but they are pretty dry and stiff after 40+ years sitting in a drawer. Common shaft seals are made with nitril black rubber (NBR), but the heat range on NBR only goes up to 200...

So evidently from what Mike Bear and Mark G are saying, these things just about bolt on and work to a Saxonette motor... I've never seen it done, but sounds like it should work.. May need to stretch the holes out on the recoil some, and have to use the cup from this motor?? :shrug: I probably...

Can someone confirm for me the right kind of wrench to use with a Saxonette exhaust nut? I'm assuming a hook wrench / or hook spanner is the correct tool. Before I bid on one, does anyone know for sure? Finding the exact size would be tough. Anyone had good luck with adjustable ones? (again...

Calling all Saxonette owners. I was changing the transmission fluid in one of my Sachs engines the other day and noticed a metallic swirl. This is from a 47cc Saxonette on an Arctic Cat. I've been around these engines since the late 70's, with a 30 year break in between, but have never gotten...

Repaired Aftermarket Sachs Saxonette Recoil Dog

Sachs Saxonette recoil with repaired aftermarket dogs.

Looking for a throttle cable for a Arctic Cat Whisker with a saxonette engine.

I have just rebuilt the Sachs 47cc engine on my 1972 Arctic Cat Prowler and I need some expert ears to give me some feedback. I went through every square inch and replaced the crank, bearings, seals and installed new clutch disks for first and second gear. I was careful to check the...

I'm rebuilding a Sachs 50 / AMAX 47cc Saxonette engine for my 1971 and 1972 Arctic Cat Prowlers and put this document together to help me out. I captured images from the Sachs 50 / AMAX Parts Manual that was posted on Vintage Snow. I zoomed in on the drawings so I have a good shop guide while...

I am rebuilding a Sachs Saxonette 50cc 2 cycle engine for an Arctic Cat. I bought a complete NOS gasket and seal kit but after sitting on a shelf for 40 years, some of the larger, thiner gaskets have curled and twisted. If you are familiar with that engine, you know that there are 2 large but...

I just picked up a AC Prowler the other day, but the recoil had been removed and the drum that bolts to the flywheel was missing. The previous owner found the recoil, but the drum that the recoil fits inside of is gone. If anyone has parts, I would be happy to buy them. The bonded pieces on the...

Hello I have a buddy who has an older artic ssscat minni bike with a sachs motor and he needs a recoil. Anybody have an idea as to where I can find it that would be great!

another request here for anyone who might have a recoil for a saxonette engine, and willing to part with it. i have a complete resto project on a a/c prowler going and i am down to the recoil. thanks

1971 Coleman Sport 2.40

Hey Everyone, I'm not sure if this is the ideal spot for this, but I recently bought a 1971 Coleman Sport 2.40 with an extra motor. The bike runs and drives. I am thinking about selling it for college money. I can add pictures soon, but what are these bikes worth? Is there a demand for...
