One of the engines I like to collect is the Super Tigre line. I have used them in the past and found them to run very nice. The odd one has given me grief setting up the carburetor but once I figured it out they ran great.
In this post I like to talk about the 60 V engine.
There must be different models and here is what I notice.
Engine A: I have one without the muffler ears (NIB). The 60 is in a circle, piston has 1 ring.
Engine B: One with ears (new). The 60 is in a circle, piston has 1 ring.
The inards of A and B are identical, crank has BB60/1 stamped. Heads are about .500 tall.
Engine C: Without ears and I am rebuilding. 60 is in a circle but the top and bottom of the circle are flat. Inards are same as A and B but the cylinder head is taller by maybe .100". Piston is a single ring.
Engine D: Without ears and I am rebuilding. Now this one is odd. 60 is in a circle with the top and bottom flat. Same crank as above but the piston has 2 rings with a lower pin hole and a shorter rod. The engine is the same stroke but with a shorter rod, maybe higher rpm? My guess. Not sure why the taller heads, maybe better cooling? I can't vouch if the rod and piston are stock, maybe out of a Bluehead 60? Who knows.
Any one out there have any Super Tigre comments / comparisons?
