Woo! Back from the bike shop and it charges its battery again :D Turns out running it with a 4 pin rectifier and the dual output setup I had the first time is the way to go. Its back to 12.5v at idle with the lights on and 13+ when revved. Lights off it's higher by about a volt or two. Finally...

Hahaha omg that's munted! You mentioned before you have an LED headlight. What is it and where did you get it from? I've been looking everywhere for one :P

I will consider your setup if I can't get my one to work :)

Yeah it would have needed machining, but as I said we just decided to take the charging parts off the lifan stator and bolt them on to the z160 stator and used the z160 flywheel. It fit perfectly and the way we had it wired up seemed to be running well for a while, and now theres next to no...

Welp, I've changed the wiring aaaaand it doesn't seem to do much at all :/ Might try a 4 pin rectifier whenever it gets here... Or sell this god damn thing and buy something that will actually work :P So frustrating trying to get this thing just right

What's your setup?

Hmm... It would seem I am running into some problems too :/ After a 10 min ride with the lowbeams on the dash dims a little and the horn sounds muffled :/ Not sure what to do about that

Haha a magic button is always welcome xD

We pretty much did exactly what was on the first page of that thread :) It seems to work pretty well! 13v at idle/low revs and 13.5v at higher revs.

We've done it! Through lots of guesswork we've managed to get a decent charge to the battery now! After transplanting the internals from the lifan stator to the z160 stator and wiring everything except the charge wire up, we got the bike running. Now while doing that transplanting, we...

Hey it's you! Haha. Those two wires on your yx should be a lot easier than my situation...

The yx had a stator from some ducar/lifan/God only knows 125cc that had two wires; a white one and a yellow one. It was pretty easy to put together seeming as though the harness for the original 50cc was made for that exact design. Ran perfectly up until the flywheel decided it wanted to leave...

Thanks heaps for the reply :) I would have used the old stator and flywheel if it weren't the reason it blew up. The flywheel actually flew off the shaft and munched up a heap of internals. We're not sure if it wasn't done up tight enough or if the part that locks it in place broke, but it's...

Hi all! I've been doing some engine swapping lately on my rx50 (used to have a yx150 with a 125cc stator/flywheel and now it is a tiny bit dead...) and now I have managed to fit a z160ho inside that crammed little frame. It has the outer rotor kit (as all of them do) but there are no charging...

In all seriousness though, where would I find a billet frame in the crf70 style? Just out of curiosity

Why not both?? :laughing-smiley-002 *gets picked up by el paso crowd*

DHZ Outlaw 160 Bent Frame Not sure where to begin with this...uhm, well, it turns out the Outlaw 160 frames don't hold up so well when an 88kg guy flatlands sort of large tabletops (50-60ft. Kept coming up just short of the downramp). This was my first official ride day with it too which...

I've been sceptical about the DRZ's ... What're they like compared to a 450? I'm sure they'd require less taking apart and servicing being a non-competitive machine

An Anima'd make it hammer!! Not sure if that's legal to swap the engine for a much bigger and better motor :S ...I'm sure there'd be a way? And I'm more keen on a supermoto than a supersport or a naked bike or anything of similar classes Tim. I've been riding my Dad's te449 a lot (not on the...

Oh this wouldn't be my first bike, believe me! I just love the sound of having a minibike on the road as oppose to something a little more....shiny. It certainly does sound cheap to run! You reckon much could be done to the motor? They look like a very standard lifan 125 to me :/
