Hi Gavin and welcome to the forum.

I have to admit that I do have a few Jap, Villiers and BSA engines, although some belong to my wife .

I see your from North Yorks, do you attend any rallies in your area, I'm not far up the road from you so we may see each other at some of the rallies. I know that a lot of the biigger rallies are not to friendly to small engines so do you get to show them?

Hello Kev have not seen a gas fueled JAP 2aS have you ever seen a water cooled version of this engine?
As I was lucky enough to buy one a few years ago the model number is changed to a JAP MF.
In this hobby their is always some thing new that is why it is a good hobby.
