Hoople Account Removed Mar 6, 2012 #4 Specs say it is a 103B engine & comes from the factory with almost 99 foot lbs of torque. That's a bunch.

Click to expand... My knees insisted I get an electric start... When I saw and rode the Slim, I knew my kickstart days were over. (The shovel is an 84" stroker I built on Delkron cases.)
