5 hp honda motor, what to do?

[Jim mac]

I just picked up a hero airless paint sprayer, it has a honda 5 hp motor in it, I can fix the sprayer by replacing the linkage to the hydraulic piston. but that would make too much sense. what would a 5 hp honda motor be good for? I do have a 110 atc that wont start, Jim

I had a 5HP honda in my minibike and it was great. the honda small engines are very reliable, and most have a failsafe so when your about to rin out of oil the engine dies and it wont start without the oil in it. I also had one in a gokart and it wasnt as fast but tourquey as heck (also from gearing aswell). I would say throw it in the 110 and see how it goes.. but thats just me and my 0.02

found a guy with a 250 R looking to trade for tools etc, so I email him and offered the whole thing to him along with a 27 inch tv. he emailed me wanting to know the model number,so he may be interested. I came to a conclusion, ATCs are limited to a few people that want them, you talk to a quad guy and they think your nuts for having anything to do with a trike.
So the 250R looks rough, I cant see any rear fenders. not too many folks are going to want a project, I noticed that also, people are lazy, they want something for nothing and if it looks like crap they can't understand cosmetics are easy to fix. Jim
