| | | Lifan 150cc Daytona style
I know these motors are new but im just wondering if anyone knows if these are any good and what kind of power they are making? Like the idea of the Daytona style oil filter and the motor almost looks the exact same as the late Chinese Built Daytonas. Can anyone tell me what the difference is between these 2 motors? Could be my new motor if i dont get too much negative feedback.

yeah after the first couple of rides on mine they smoke
they have alot more useable power than the yx the yx is a short stroke motor and rev's out to quick and doesn't through the power right through the rev range
you will need to chuck a set of heavy duty clutch springs in the lifan
dom at citymotorbikes reckons he hasn't had any problems with his but when ya sell them to kids you shouldn't
i know of 1 that has lunched second gear but the rider give's it a shit fight hard time
for the coin the lifan is the way to go!!

Yeah had trouble in the past with the lifan 2nd gear on my original 110cc, got the ducar 125cc and havent had any dramas as yet but its still pretty new.Wouldve been keen as to keep the 125cc but everyones stepped it up so its time for a upgrade. Anyone know of a secondhand 124se haha cause id be keen.

Yeah i love mine. Seriously fast with my 67kg weight on it. Havnt had any dramas yet. Just a few faulse neutrals, but thats my fault. I think if you ride one of these engines like a big bike it will destroy the gearbox. A little too much power i reckon. Just go easy on the flat changes and clutch fanning and it will go forever. Just remember they are only a glorified postie motor. Interestingly though i am almost two seconds slower on our track than i was with my 140. I would say cause im struggling to keep it under control now.  But man is it fun to ride now. I can just pass my mates on their 140s whenever i want. Do yourself a favour and get one. you will love it.
