It did rev cleanly, I had a problem with the irk. One of the three plates fell out. They are sending a replacement and are apparently fixing the problem at it's source for the future engines. I took it out on the weekend and it ran pretty well, I did a dodgy job with the clutch that caused...

I will try to remember this weekend, remember this is in a quad: Elstar FYM Typhoon : es125fym. I'll show a comparison between it and my banshee... wait that may not be fair :). Actually it may compare pretty well to my mates Polaris 250 now, the old 125 engine was just a bit slower (10KM/H)...

I had a short ride with the new engine today. It is a hell of a lot better than the old 125 FYM Motor. It sounds pretty tough and is very responsive. It accelerates hard and gets to the peak quickly (doesn't feel like it is having trouble winding up and I'm 90 kg). I must say a wiring...

Sorry, only problem with engine was the guy using it, kick start gears are fine. Tip to self, when tired stop working and go to bed :rolleyes:

Engine arrived today, it is a bit different to my old one but it fits. When I tried to start it, I kicked it over a few times and then the kicker slipped and didn't return to position. I'm ecstatic that I am now going to have to open the engine, man it makes me so happy. :mad: I hope someone...

Today I was thinking that maybe I didn't need this engine. My son will be using the bike now and he doesn't need the extra power and the electric start on the current engine will be easier for him. Well I took him on a ride to show him how to use the clutch and gears etc. When we finished...

I now find myself hoping that this engine isn't too powerful. I bought an absolute bargain today. A 2006 Yamaha Banshee that is practically new for $4500. That means the FYM typhoon ATV this engine is going in will be ridden by my son, so I would rather it be slower. I gotta say though for...

I received a response from Steve at Maxpower, here it is: ____________________________________ Hello Sean, Yes we did the dyno, The dyno shows it only put out 14.49HP but that is because it was running rich, as the dyno shows. Once we get the New jet It would put out 16HP Easy...

How much do people charge for a quick and dirty dyno test? I sent Max Power an Email. The dyno sheet certainly looks like the ones on the Max Power website (look further down, the first few have a different heading font): MaxPower Performance Cycles: DYNO GRAPHS I don't really care...

That is peaking at 5000RPM. Is this because it is measured at the wheel? The add says it peaks at 9500RPM: DIRTMAX AVENGER 150CC 16HP ENGINE PITBIKE - eBay Other Makes, Bike Parts, Motorcycle Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 11-Feb-08 12:49:44 AEDST) And I notice it has...

I have realised there was one thing I didn't think of when ordering this engine. I sometimes ride at night. Anyone know of a solution? Maybe a stator I can buy and swap out when needed (I don't ride at night much - about 3 times a year or so, but want the option to do it if possible). Or...

Why does this: Urban X Motos ...............Quad Bikes, Dirt Bikes & Mountain Bikes - 150cc 16HP Engine have a GPX logo on it? The Dirt Max advertised here (which is the same motor sold by the same people): DIRTMAX AVENGER 150CC 16HP ENGINE PITBIKE - eBay Other Makes, Bikes...

It could be considered premeditated murder. It is always a good practice to scope out your tracks slowly first. We ride in an area where *"greenies" are trying to clear out the riders (It is not illegal to ride there) They put up dangerous wires to stop people riding in certain areas, but...

Cheers, This says 10KW, but it also says it's electric start, so it obviously isn't too accurate: Lifan 140cc Engine (type R) : lf140r I see on other sites they are claiming 8KW which would be the 10HP. If people stopped messing/making? these specs up, the chinese bike industry would be...

I just ordered one of these after spending about 4 hours trawling through websites about the positives and negatives of this engine. I concluded that I would have to see for myself. I will post back with experience once I get one, if people want to know. I'm planning on putting it in a FYM...
