Potash123 26 #1 Posted August 31, 2018 Picked up a nice Hayterette with a rear bumper and B & S 50 XTS Quantum Engine. Started first go and has new wheels fitted !! It was apparently a graveyard mower. The blade is the single type which appears to be a B & S modification. My old mate reckons this was in fact produced as the disc and blades are so expensive. It does not look like a home made. Can anyone throw any light o this theory, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wristpin 400 #2 Posted August 31, 2018 I do hate these guessing games, for *** sake post an image! There were two machines known as graveyard mowers , the Hawk 12” and the Hawk Major 19”. Both had a friction disc with a bar blade. 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Potash123 26 #4 Posted August 31, 2018 I have serious problems on all of my motorcycle forums and this on posting pictures as they are too large, tried most things to resize pictures.. Anyway it looks like a normal Hayterette not a graveyard mower which I have seen a few. I really wish I could send pics, so sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A friction disc and bar blade was offered as an option for Hayterettes.

Potash123 26 #9 Posted September 2, 2018 Well Stormin. I used that link for this, but it won't let me post pictures anywhere else eg BSA Owners Club and others, file too LARGE again ???? Frustrating. I have an A65 as good as that as well. regards Colin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
