Below are some places where you can learn more about your Koban.
1. "The American Rowboat Motor" by Arlan Carter. This is a must have book for anyone interested in early outboards. You can order
from Arlan directly. His contact info is in the club directory. The book is also available on Ebay and Amazon too.
2. My rowboat motor website http://www.caille.8m.com/rowboat/
The Koban page is http://www.caille.8m.com/rowboat/Koban/koban-index.html
3. The most important person to go to is ALWAYS the special interest group leader in this case Chris Scratch.
Kobans did not have decals and were not painted with metal flake paint. The tank was gray and the iron parts black.
Nonferrous parts were not painted.
