Which Briggs?

What's the main differences between the animal, animal. Local option 206, and M series?

Animal has 12k rpm limit coil, LO206 has 6100 rpm limit coil and sealed bottom end, M is for midgets and has splined crank

So if putting on a mini bike or kart that kids would be riding occasionally I should go with the local 206? I'm guessing I can always change our that rev limiter later?

 

[rmm727]

Yeah LO206 is cheaper. Coil can be changed out for Animal one.

 

[groundpounder17]

The animal and the local 206 are the same price.

 

[rmm727]

Sorry, thought the Animals were more. You're right, just looked it up. Animal doesn't have a recoil. LO206 does.

 

[groundpounder17]

So the only difference is the recoil and the rev limiter? What is the powerband of the animal, what's the rpm range?

 

[rmm727]

they all have the same cam. The LO206 has a sealed bottom end so people don't mess with the internal. There is a tag that you have to cut to take the side cover off. The 6100 rpm coil keep everyone's engine revving the same. Animals coil will go to 12k rpm but I know they won't rev that high stock. maybe 7k or so. Call Jim at Fastermotors.net and ask. He's very knowledgeable and helpful.

I just took a look at that website. The local 206 looks to be the way to go
