This engine is based on the other single cylinder in the range but with the V-twins larger flywheel and extended exhaust pipes. This gives the engine a deeper pitch.

A simple turn of a knob on the gas tank and flick the flywheel, then adjust the knob for the correct speed and to rev the engine.

The baseplate and engine are made from polished and anodized aluminum. The cylinder liner and pistons consist of hardened steel which ensures a long life span. The flywheel is polished brass. The ignition system uses Piezo crystal which requires no batteries.
