Just joined this site and I am wondering what brand of engine and carb the 71 44 sprint had.

Thanks, just bought one for $75 for my girlfriend, all complete except for the seat. I collect suzukis, polaris, and kawasakis but the girlfriend wanted a rupp, so this will be a new experience for me as I am not familier with them yet.

Correct would be a Tohatsu motor TR440 with a Keihan carb. Welcome to the board ! If you need help ? just ask we will get you pointed in the right direction  Dave. |

Welcome Sprint, Dave is the man when it come to these 44's - look around the board, he has vids posted that show what a rocket his sled is! They do run great. Wig

44 Sprint if you could wait for 1 week you can check out the snomobile show in hutch on sat the 15th at the fair grounds.A bunch of us are heading out there,it's a good time and the show is all indoors and the swap is out doors,we could hook up out there and do a little B.S.'n.......DENNIS.......
