Michael Rathberger Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Here's a Kent 8. As a motor, runs pretty nice. Supposed to have a better designed rotor(?) with more poles. I will say it's smoother than the Porters, I find them to be choppy. Probably the reason they are unadorned, they're good. Not sure the pulley in the front is original, but I like it so it stays. Motor or dynamo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
