WEZ,

Apart from the obvious information that can be taken from the motors decal, there is not much more I can tell you about it.. There is every chance that this motor was produced in a number of different winds and configurations.

It is a Modified style motor, so may I suggest removing brushes, and then the 2 screws that hold the end bell on, then remove the end bell, and pull the armature from the can and have a look at the armature stack to see if there is anything stamped on there (in ink) to give an indication as to what wind it is... You could also look at the tabs on the commutator where the windings attach, to give an indication as to if it is a single, double, tripple etc wind..

Have you tried Google?

Not surprisingly it's one of Yokomos Esprit range of motors. They were a machine wound motor available in a range of winds, Yokomo made them late 80s to early 90s. The removable endbell means we know it isn't a 27 turn stock, as for what wind it is you will have to take it apart and see what's printed on the armature as it could be anything down to a 12 turn, but with the Torque name it's likely to be a high turn like 19-23 turns.
