isnt the motovert 140ccc better than a lifan???
NOT if they're a Jialing ! Cat-5 is the exulted "GURU" behind all the T-Bolt 140/146 GPX Jialings . I know people in the states who race the 140 GPX's and this is what they had to say :
[/quote] What ID does cat-5 go under ? DC whatever his name is ?
Your X2R has a Honda motor in it . What did it cost ? I'd buy a Honda engine down the line but I'm giving the Lifan monster 120's and 140's a chance first ! If they don't cut it , no BIG loss . I'll sell 'em off as spare parts and go Jap built !
Does the Takegawa 114cc motor just rev harder up top , or does it have more power everywhere over the 140 Jialing ! I'd assume the 140 has stronger bottom end but drops off up top which you'd expect with a longer stroked crank .[/quote]
Dont know about Cat-5 or DC....Both are complete tools....
The 114cc is about 2 years old and highly dependable. Its an e-22 type head Boyesen Porting a real cheap tall cylinder but has a Superhead Piston...it revs quick and hits real hard mid to topend..a screamer it Ripps
I have many Motors on the shelve I would have run my 140cc GPX but the inner cases cracked from kick back so I grabbed my Takegawa 114cc motor off the shelve and ran it..its actually faster than the 140cc but I hate the fact that is a 3 speed.
The 140cc gpx is a low to mid motor it makes great power but the materials use in the lower end and cases are weak...sooner or later one of the china companys will get it right. to make the motor real race worthy a Tranny treatment has to be done. Kenny has a 160cc GPX motor that makes 23HP, is working on a 186cc and just got the parts needed to do a 200cc gpx
Later
And :
Jialings taken out to 140/146 are more reliable than Lifan 140's ??????? Ehhhh ???? Some people need to put down the crack pipe and hit the smelling salts !!!!!!
