Interesting find on Amazon. Did not know they made one this size.

https://www.amazon.com/Saito-Engines...=Saito+Engines

But then looked at HH and they sell it too, but for less.

Who would know better than you Saito lovers. What is the difference between the Saito.91 and the Saito .91S. It's likely not a performance change. Possibly a minor casting or material change? I asked Horizon and they were very vague to the point of, we don't know.

The Saito .91's were all S models. They were the last of the mid block, .65, .80 and .91. The .91 was replaced with the 1.00 in the newer B block as it is called on some of the others. The 1.00 never had the B designation.

Interesting, I have a 91, guess I should see how it looks next to the 100 when I overhaul the bearings.

This is possibly the first Saito 1.50 sold, at least according to a lady at Horizon. It is a 1.50S and now the 1.50's are in the new case and are also called B.

As you can see,it isn't exactly Golden Knight.

It's like comparing two tins of pal dog food as far as performance goes and nearly as good as a 125.

I can't believe that price for the fg36,a few years back when our dollar was worth 10 cents more than yours and pope was still lucid my fg57 cost about 1500 aussie i think

Good AM to you Pete, I may be a bad guy in January and get my self an FG 11. One crying out to me for a good home. Gonna drive 400 miles to my Daughter's in a few minutes. I have the Misterbishi full of gas and new engine oil, ready to roll.

The FG-11 is a sweet little engine, but a bit lacking on the power side, so choose wisely on what you put it in.
