    Honda GC160???

    I have a nice GC160 off of a power washer that had a dead head. Im not afraid of fabbing up a throttle for it, but Im concerned about the crank. It only has about 1 1/4 inches of useable shaft. If I were to use a stud, lock washers and Loctite, would that be acceptable? I really like this engine...

    Question on GC160 torque converter

    I am wondering if this 3/4" auto express torque converter will fit a Honda GC160 for minibike. COMET-TORQUE-CONVERTER-30-SERIES-GO-KART-KIT-CLUTCH-3-4-30-75-12T-35-10T-41/ It's on fleabay. I am assuming a straight Q shaft that's 3/4" but I will measure it before I order. Appreciate any...

    Motovox with Honda GC160

    Well, it's been awhile since I've been able to do anything mini-bike related. Been a crazy year, got out of the military, got married, moved, big changes. I did end up having to sell off the minibikes I had to pay for the move and stuff, finally getting re-started. Picked up a Motovox for 100...

    3/4" Clutch, Honda GC160 Crankshaft

    Hey guys, does anybody have a used working 3/4" clutch they can part with for cheap? Also, I know this one is more random, but anyone have a crankshaft from a Honda GC160 motor long enough for a clutch? Just shoot me a PM, thanks!

I filled it full with new oil and some gas but nothing. It still it's compression, but it has no attempt of turning over to start. At this...

    Gilson/MW jack shaft--professional opinion needed

    My next big project is my 525, and I've tried to gauge the condition of the drive sprocket on the jack shaft. From the photos I've been able to find, I can't really judge what kind of shape mine is in. I think it is worn out, but need someone who has done these before to give an opinion. If bad...
