I was at Heritage Flight Museum in Skagit, WA. They have a small engine on display that was unidentified until recently. The sign now identifies it as an early Henderson engine used in motorcycles and used in the Heath Parasol in the 1920s.
The sign states, "This engine is believed to be a very early Heath-Henderson 2-cyl, predecessor to the more common 4-cyl.... Henderson Motorcycle engine."
I cannot find any reference to the engine on the internet, so am curious to know if the identification is correct. I didn't find anyone at the Museum who could give me more info.
