Postie bike with a Lifan 125?

[ixlr8]

What's the fix for auto to manual clutch? (I'm putting in an Outlaw 140). Although I have a spare Honda autoclutch.

But the lifan doesn't rev out as much as i expected it too? I? expected the lifan to rev higher than the honda motor.
Question : Anyone know for sure how high (RPM) the lifan are supposed to rev?
Q: I think an aftermarket CDI unit would let it rev out?
Cheers in advance

Yeah , 120/125/127/140's won't rev as hard as 70 to 110's due to the longer stroked crank ...... around 8,000 to 8,500 is tops unless you fit a race cam and springs ..........

I've seen race modded CT110's and they angle the carb and manifold to face forward ...... OR you can remove the frame covers ..

Hi s8npostie, When I've searched 140's, the general opinion is that they're fast and acceptably robust. Little comparison I've seen re Honda and 140 Chonda. I'll take my time to replace the holed crankcase, err, rebuild really on the 110.
