ahhhhhhhhhhhh thats soooo fukin good

the stud patten for the motor is jailing/lifan so it will bolt onto a lifan 150 studs

..well ...problem is , like Jack said, the cylinder height...not to forget , who's gonna make a piston for that thing(and a clutch that holds up )???
..but only thinking about a 4V on my old 146 makes me drool....hhahahaha

Yeah , we know that ....... But what is the length of the Daytona's cylinder barrel and the length of the head ...... IF the cylinder is the same length and the cam tunnel is the same height from the deck surface as a Lifan 150 BVH .. then they'd fit without cam chain hassles ...... and you could still use the Lifan piston .....

yer no wat u mean but once u got a head and the 150 lifan it woudnt be hard to get some think to work. there is so many difference barrles out there that fit them studs, but knoin if it will fit is alway much better and save alot of time and money if u dont got a large choice.....

what would help is to no wat is the piston pin size, but we will no it soona or later when pull it down alot more

Well IF they're well engineered they'll be using a 15 mm pin ...... just like Honda uses in their 125 and up motors ..... People use conrods with smaller pins so that they can buy el cheapo pistons from Akunar etc but from a strength and reliability point of view you'd run the pin size that has the greatest bearing surface area and load carrying capacity . In a racing engine , if you want a lighter pin you'd run a taper wall tool steel pin ....... or a Honda taper bored pin ........

I like to know what to avoid from the start...still waiting for ours...damn shipping companies.. will check on that oilpump thing when it arrives...but the dyno from belgium says something about 15+hp...well thats like my lifan got ...mmm...was hoping for a bit more for all that cash!
well...drop the hammer sunday and then we will see!!

 

[corey58]

gave it a good hard run today did not fail once,

love the gear box very smooth, never got a false gear once or any slips nor missed gears,

The power on it has it great, in stock form with no work but a P28mm carby it was beating hotted up lifan 150s, yx 160's, daytona 125 wif 28/24mm valves and heaps of other combos.

the power on it kicked in from about 5000rpm and it didnt stop pulling loved it,

 

[themountain]

we have been testing this engine for a few weeks here in the US with good results. much better than the z155 and yx160 junk.

Ahh we have had this motor in AUS for over a year and a half.

Pretty steep price tag though.

yer for the price i would def rather the 155z i couldn't imagine i would bee way way faster

 

[HACKMUNCH]

there not new over here but they finally got in the hands of people that know what they are doing. so far so good. daytona flew in from japan and gave us some good inside info, the 4 valve is next.

 

[pbk]

well think about it if you got a z155 for $700 that means you got 900 bucks to spend on a 155z for the same price and you could go get a v2 head plus 184 kit for something close to that and i bet you a 155 with a v2 head and 184 kit would smash one of these donks any day

lmao and last 2 laps, been there done that. We built a 202cc+r yx and the cases and output shafted last 3 laps. Z155 and yx160 are junk.

 

[coolmodee01]

your a goose mate the daychina is just as bad

rebuild every 10 hours my ass

and as the boys say the price is 2:1 not worth it in many peoples opinion

 

[exquisit]

any updates on this?

in terms of reliability compared to a 155z... is the money justified?
