Un moteur fiable !!
10 years ago
J'avais un vieux VTT 250 CC sans son moteur et j'ai eu la brillante idée d'acheter ce petit moteur Rato 212 CC pour l'installer avec quelques modifications dans mon VTT !... je n'ai pas été déçu !!... il fonctionne tout en douceur, il démarre 2 coups de crinque garantie tout les matins et la fiabilitée semble vraiment excellente !... un très bon moteur pour le prix !

Canadian tire, 4 stroke 212cc 7hp gas engine. Rato
11 years ago
Great little engine, a good deal at the regular price and on sale.
The Rato is a clone of a brand name 4 stroke that is ubiquitous in the small engine market. It is made by Rato Power in Chongqing china.
I bought mine to install on my Canadian Tire Doddle Bug mini bike.
Observations made while prepping this motor for mini bike use were the excellent quality of the casting and machining of the parts. All fasteners were properly torqued, The valves were set perfectly, the guides have positive seals and the retainers are automotive style and use split keepers. The intake valve is a larger 27mm, Many high performance parts not seen on the competitors’ machines!
For me this motor makes outstanding power, the Rato is an excellent performer and achieves its rated 7hp if not more. I highly recommend the Rato for any application.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Excellent Engines
12 years ago
I purchased 12 of these engines for my mechanics class. So far we have opened 6 of the boxes, taken the engines completely apart, put them back together, and started them without any trouble. The Rato engine is superior to the Briggs as far as I am concerned. The Rato has less parts and some internal components like the cam shaft are much better designed and will last longer. I cannot speak to the longevity since we don't run them for very long, but I suspect they will last for years with regular maintenance.
Yes, I recommend this product.
