Modified Lifan on the Baja DB30 - Page 3

Got the clutch flipped around and centered up the engine. I threw on a new clutch. The first one was a craigs list special on a Sunday evening. It worked but a little worn out. The new one is day and night! I had to re-fab the pipe a bit to keep it in the frame. The wheelies are sweet on this. I think with a little more practice I'll be able to hold one down the street.

We have 5 quads, 2 CRF 250R's, an RM 85, a KX 65, and this mini bike which none of us can leave alone. Money well spent!

Yeah there pretty fun, and addicting, even if you own a real motorcycle. you seem to want to ride the mini.

Looks good, what size is you rear sprocket?

Tripp,

The DBs can be a lot of fun with a better motor... I think you did a fine job.

Don't let anyone else put you off with silly comments. Most here will appreciate the fact that you are having fun with a hobby they also enjoy!

Never saw a pic of one done until I did it . Looks way better IMO, never understood the sky high fender.

hi im looking to get that motor but the ones at my harbor freight are labeled Central machinery, is that the same as the lifan because i heard that the lifan was the best clone is the true?

**Strigoi** · 11-10-2008, 09:37 AM

the ones with the blue are the HF clones.

as for the pipe, check out AGK. they've got a bunch of different style headers. affordablegokarts: Straight Header, Single Stage

a friend of mine is almost done with swapping a 110cc Lifan w/ a 4-speed into his DB30 (he had to make modify a bunch of stuff). he texted me yesterday that he finally got it running. it's a super tight fit but looks sick. i should be going by his house sometime this week, i'll try to remember to get pics.

Cool Tripp, are you running the billet rod and 18lb valve springs? I'm building a blue 6.5 now and I got sharked into buying all of the extras from AGK, started with the mikuni carb and pipe and then AGK shows "related items" and before I knew what hit me my basket was full, I can hardly wait to get mine finished and running.
