Vintage English four stroke
Just received this today, a Condor 120 FS.
Notice the nylon wheel on the valve pully which bumps up against the fuel line which acts like a pump. These engines are extremely hard to come by as they were not even offered outside the UK. Not sure how many were made but I have heard low numbers. No serial #'s, the carb is much like Enya and the short exhaust is basically designed for the neoprene tubing. This is a cool engine with very little run time by the looks and feels of it. These engines came in two versions, a 91 in 1982 and the 120 in 1983 by Dennis Allen of Condor Engine Products. A total of 500 engines were made between the two sizes and production came to a halt because of the intense assembly of these engines. Bill
