Odd the way things happen around this site...Never saw a Genny like this before, and now another shows up in Belguim.

The one on this thread is another Canadian model. British ones are very common in the UK as manufacture continued presumably into the 1960's but Canadian examples are rare. I loaded a skip full Canadian Chorehorses a few years ago which feature on a thread on this site, but they were all past saving and incomplete.

I have a Canadian example, given to me many years ago by a friend of my father who had it on his boat. He couldn't get it to start so threw it out as a lost cause. He had a good spark so cleaned the carb , making a new flange gasket when refitting it.
Having forgotten to cut the centre hole in the gasket, he was certainly making it hard for himself......

The actual design is pre-war so purchased basically off the shelf.
Makes you wonder what agreement BSA had with Johnsons to manufacture. https://www.yumpu.com/no/document/vi...uc-enterprises

Chore horse ID
I have a UK built Chore Horse (going by the BSF and BA fixings).
Can anyone tell me the manufacturer? The identification plate has the logo "LsE". I am in the process of stripping it down and found the petrol tank full of a rusty fibrous material. I realised after a while that a previous owner had made the engine block/petrol tank gasket without removing the middle. This had collapsed and was returning to its maker.

One warning: the gasket is asbestos, so bag it up safely and dispose of it properly. Chris.
