All service Speedsters are recognized as 7 HP motors, so where the 8 HP rating comes from, I have no clue. Could be that there were plans in t he works for such an animal, but it never actually happened.
It was listed in the catalog as part of the Speedster family, but doesn’t show up in the model-year list. Where did it go, eh?
The 8 HP motor that did show up in 1932 was the Service “A”, which should not be confoozed with the Service Speedster.

I never seen a date in that article, but I was also thinking that it was
a possibility that they were touting something that never came to
fruition.
I was wondering about that "Service A" in 1932, but haven’t looked
for a photo of one yet.
All interesting!
Prepare to be boarded!
