Engine list of Max ????

Marc, I believe that Maxes came with Kawasaki engines in the early to mid 1980's.

Thank you very much !
Wow 38 hp thats more than i expected, do you know in which year they produced them?
Sadly my oldest brochure is from the end of the 80´s

Marc, The old Kawasaki 440 that came in the Max was rated at 38 horsepower in the old factory brochures. Here is a list of engines used in the Max machines over the years:

-JLO/Rockwell single and twin cylinders 295cc up to 440cc I believe
-Kawasaki 440cc twin
-Chapparell G50B twin 484cc
-Tecumseh Over Head Valve 16 and 18HP single cylinder engines
-Briggs V Twin Vanguard engines
-Kohler flat twin Magnum engines
-Kohler Command V twin engines.
-Onan flat twin engines (only a very short run of these were used)
-Kawasaki Liquid cooled V twin engines.

I think I covered them all, but if I missed any please let us know. I hope this helps.

Hi all together.
Does anyone have a list which engines were used in old vintage Max atvs?
I want to buy two max from someone. One is with the usual 18 hp Briggs & Stratton but the other has a two zylinder two stroke Kawasaki engine. The owner told me that this would be the original engine but no one could tell me how many horsepower this engine has. Even in old brochures there is no hint about the hp or at least the engine at all.
Maybe there is someone out there who could help me?
