tapered

So I am in the planning stages of a Tule trooper I picked up a while back, and trying to figure out the power train. I've got my heart set on using an 8 horse flathead briggs with a torque converter. the problem is that the only ones that ever pop up in my area are on generators, and I believe...

I need one usable/buildable shock. I managed break the lower eye while trying to save the tube rebuilding one shock. I need a match or parts please. I may consider a pair if reasonable. Woody

I have no less than 3 beautiful running complete HM80 Tec's sitting in my garage. The problem is that all 3 have tapered crankshafts. Is there anyone that machines the taper and sleeves the crank to make it a straight PTO end?

All the local motors are tapered shaft those would work great on the big bike we are doing https://norfolk.craigslist.org/grq/5262517463.html https://norfolk.craigslist.org/bar/5306062204.html

I know some have seen this , but it may help others if you know a good machinist . I got this Honda 160 with a DB-30 purchase , well it didn't have a clutch on it ? Yep pressure washer engine , tapered shaft and no key-way . My Buddy chucked the whole engine in lathe ( removed spark plug ) and...

The local Machinist here in boring quoted me 30$ for him to turn my 7/8 tapered shaft from my hm80 tec down to 3/4 and cut the keyway!!!!! Hes an awesome guy and does excellent work! This is the first shaft Ive had done so im like a lil kid waiting to take it down monday...lol anyway i figured i...

So I was given an hm100 and it has a tapered shaft I haven't been able to find a replacement for it. Has anyone had luck finding one or coming up with an alternative ? I plan on putting it on my boonie, I haven't had a chance to see if it fits but I think it will.

I have a chance to get a brig and strat that's 11hp with tapered shaft. The converter that goes on that is outrageous in price. Is the a way to mod the shaft? Thanks fir looking. Kenny

Anyone know if this motor will have a tapered shaft? It's on a maxa? generator. I'm thinking about getting it for parts for my HM 80 but would love to just swap it out if it can be done easily. 4kv generator

10 HP TECUMSEH GENERATOR ENGINE Thought about picking one of these up. How difficult would it be to find a new crank for it? Thinking about stuff one of these in my super bronc.

Hello, new here and I go by bikebudy aka' Cory I've had a few minibikes in the past, even built a custom one from an old mini frame. Right now I'm working on two things. The three wheeled custom Schwinn chopper, I'm putting a Honda gs160 into! ( my avatar ) AND, A Rupp Go-Joe 4...

Hi yall. I have a 5 hp briggs with a tapered shaft. can i use this thing for anything? There is no key way. the shaft is smooth and tapered with a bolt hole on the end. Not sure if I put a clutch on something like that or not.

would like to find a tapered crankshaft and rod for a 8hp briggs. thank you

Who has done this? How much did it cost? I have two 5hp hondas sitting around collecting dust...

Pics 1 & 2- New Tec HM100 short block bought off ebay by a fellow OldMiniBikes member...he had them ship it directly to me for machine work on the tapered crankshaft. Pics 3 & 4- He'll be running a 3/4" torque converter driver, so I'll machine the 7/8" tapered crank down to 3/4" OD x 3" long... Pic...

i'm looking for someone who can taper the crankshaft on an hm100 to 3/4 it's a tapered shaft and i'm not too keen on takin engines apart so i'd prefer to just take it to someone who can do the work. thanks - dave
