Because the only commonality between the 503 and 912 is the name on the engine. The 912 is a four-stroke, the 503 a two-stroke.
So, I'll put this in a new thread.
Capt. Geoff...
Your posting is just about the only thing I've found that said it can be done. Do you have a 100HP? Please set the record straight and post a video. Quite frankly, I WANT to see it can be done, as the thought of being stranded on a small dirt 'strip on the Baja has always haunted me.
OK, I said it would be a couple weeks, but after I got home I decided I was having a "**** it, I'm going to the airport" day.
So, here it is. Hand propping a Rotax 912 UL - 80 hp, no slipper clutch. If anyone has a 100 HP with the clutch, bring it by.
