Latest one to join the fold- not exactly sure if 181 or 281- not an XP possibly, but there you go.
Might have been made out of a box of parts at some stage, starter side of case has been busted off- bottom AV mount towards rear handle and welded back on- but was done nicely.
Has vivid pen 281 on cylinder- twin thin ring piston, but no ID tag no more.
Arrived yesterday around lunchtime- has been torn down cleaned up and reassembled, with a spare muffler that was kicking about.
Now Im no spring chicken- I was old enough to buy one of these when they were new on shelves- but I have not seen this style of clutch cover before- was there an option for unbraked 181 or 281? All the castings are there for the old metal brake with the rod pinned to the band- but no holes formed?
