I'm gonna swing the other way here. Having owned the outlaw140 for about 2 years i can't say i'm looking for more power on it. Geared to hit 100k's at top of 4th, i wouldn't want to go a lot faster than that on a china bike haha. A mate of mine has the 160 and yeah, power wheelies...

hahaha so just, buy a whole new system and ride that till it falls apart? :P Not worth worrying about trying to chuck a new lever and reservoir on and bleeding that etc?

Hey guys, On my last ride on the old outlaw 140, i was experiencing gradual pressure decrease in the front brake system, but power was still there. Just, the bite point was moving closer to the bars. It eventually started clanging around, as something completely fell out the lever. D: Had...

Just thought i'd update, all fixed after all of that. Had another problem where the carby's choke wouldn't stay off, only slightly but enough to mess things up, all sorted now though, thanks.

Cheers Cactus Jack, never thought about it affecting the air filter, there's a fair amount of misleading information thrown about the place haha, it does make sense though. When you say use soapy water, do you mean a mild soap like diluted handwash (if dishwashing liquid is unsafe)?

So the Unifilter i bought a few months ago, has a smooth rubber flange which refuses to stay on my carby, unless i manage to get it just right and clamp it tight, unlike the stock airfilter which has ribs and will happily stay in place. The Unifilter has split completely now, which would be...

Yeah, properly took the carby apart and cleaned it out, fair bit of dirt in there, and also over a pea sized amount of water sitting there, along with the rust that it formed. I've done a bit more work on the bike and before putting the carby back on to test, i took my exhaust pipe off, which...

Yeah was a bit of crap in the carbie, should be sweet now cheers :)

I do hose down the bike with the air filter on and it does get soaked, but never had an issue before. i'll give that a shot now then, cheers.

hey guys, i am completely stuck here, and before i do any random dismantling want to see if i've missed something. i have a dhz outlaw 140, for about a year and has run pretty much fine untill a week ago. The bike was running a bit rough, so i changed the oil. next ride the bike had a massive...

Cheers mate i'll give that a shot. Was a bit of sand in the tyre too that probably didnt help, tyre pressures too low? Might be a bit off topic but with a rim locker, whats the minimum PSI you would go on sand/limestone? thankss

Hey guys i got a problem got a 6 month old dhz 140 outlaw got first flat tyre the other day, turns out the inner tube has worn out around the tyre clamping thingo? I didn't think it was smart to just whack another tube in there, and way to resolve this problem? i've attached a picture.

my bushings in the shock eyelets have gone already , 4thish ride eek! Wogtaz ryder, i don't want to sound like im having a go here, i'm a bit confused how a 300lb spring linkage would work better than a 1000lb one due to the shock being under less pressure? Surely the damping systems are...

Roll the throttle! Aha, my dhz does the same thing kinda always has, it even bogs going WOT when i change up into any gear, im keen to find out if there's a simple solution i haven't thought about ( and yes, ive done my valve clearances :P).

^ Yeah, im very/pretty sure it's mostly used for more progressive damping. So its soft over the rough stuff, but ramps up under hard hits to help stop bottom-out. Im not sure about lighter suspension being used, i think the linkage would add weight if anything.

What seals exactly? Ive just ran the motor with the cover off, and no oil appeared to be coming from the rotor area, How would oil escape from the motor except from the drain plug? On such a new bike aswell

Hey guys hope you can give me a hand here I noticed a little puddle of oil form after a ride a while back then the engine bash plate was covered in oil while it was in my garage and slowly forming droplets I took the rotor cover off ( I think that's what its called - drive side) and it...

I put new oil in, and it didnt help. The clutch is fine for the start of the ride, its only when its heats up it gets worse. Dads mate said it is probably warped clutch plates, as i dragged the clutch a bit while running it in, and was riding on really hot days. The entire engine gets...

Thanks i just bought some castrol activ 4t. For cleaning the clutch plates, should i use a contact cleaner, i have a brake cleaner, that would work yes?

I really can't point the problem here and have done alot of searching. Just bought a DHZ outlaw 140 after new years, and it didn't come with a manual. My little knowledge and small amount of researching led me to get '10w/40', so i got some castrol semi synthetic, and changed that before every...
