Title: Bultacomotor identification Help...
Post by: ola_martin on October 18, 2010, 11:18:45 pm

I just found an old 194cc Bultacomotor.
Nr: M500422C
Please look at     http://forums.mxtrax.co.uk/showthread.php?t=285428      for pics as I'm not able to upload here...

Can anyone tell me what it is??

Thanks

Hei Ola,

What makes you say it is 194cc.

If the engine number begins with M50 it should be a 1967 el Bandito 350 engine. ???

It sort of looks like that to me ??? I think.

If it is ??? I think they were one of the best looking bikes senior Bulto ever instigated.

I have had experience with the 68 to 71 el Banditos. Great "Neck Snappers" in a straight line.

They were a machine that weren't easily sorted at the time, unless you fitted them with a Montadero cylinder to make them ride-able. That amongst a few other poor quality's led to market failure, hence their speedy discontinuation and now rarity.

Thanks Mick ;)
I measured the bore and stroke, that's what makes me say it's a 194cc.
Just found out it's a 1962-67 kart engine...
