war

Got about 3 of these engines. They were built in wolvohampton England (20 mins from where i live). Only problem is the output shaft being tapered and threaded (roughly 17.5mm) finding a clutch can be a problem. This one has a modified pocket bike exhaust https://youtu.be/QjV3CQL8sy4

made a shakedown run on my bird "war eagle". pics coming....I used a little 3 hp briggs (no gov.) that was on the bike,I think these work a lot better for more legroom. decals coming from bikebudy .....:scooter: Mick

looking for someone to make bird war eagle front fork decals. saw some sample pics here somewhere. thanks Mick

Looked at this bike a few times now.Took a really ggood look at it again today with JR.It's a Sachs,supposed to be a 1938. I got first dibs if I want it.Still waiting for the seller to put a number on it.

I stumbled across this on youtube and thought it was really cool. They are known as the Welbike made by Excelsior Motor Company. They dropped these things out of airplanes with some of the airborne divisions! So damn cool if you ask me... News Film from 1943...

late 60's or early 70's - sticker says War Eagle - looks like a Wren or a Bird. Perhaps 'branded' War Eagle for a particular department store, feed store, or automotive store ?
