chasing info on YX160 Stator/Magneto

[BananaMan]

Hi guys, hopefully one of you can help me!!

i need to swap a magneto from a YX160 engine, the existing one does not have the extra coils required for lighting.

it is the round type magneto, the charging ones have 6 coils,

They tell me on ebay that the one they sell for the YX160 will also fit the LIFAN 140 and 150 motors, IS THIS CORRECT???

If so, there is a seller with just the magneto windings to suit a lifan 140 for $35, which should get me out of trouble.

Otherwise, if there is anyone out there who has a magneto lying around that they wish to part with, let me know, cash or trade, either way i'm happy.

Thanks Fellas.

Got a pic of what you have? Lifan is way different, over here. YX's here come with a small OD thin shell unit. Most had a lighting coil but last year a batch slipped through without. If streeting, a full-size flywheel setup may suit it better to ease smooth takeoff with taller gearing. Unless you like revving it up and spinning the tyre through the intersections. I do

I'm doing the same swap, the one I picked on ebay is $65 for coils and flywheel.
