Hook it all up. There will be 2 wires left over, White and Yellow or Yellow and Yellow. These go to the rec/reg. Have a read of this, http://www.miniriders.com.au/running-gear/22532-how-add-lights-charging-gpx-150-160-a.html, it should be the same.

my engine is the new 155z with oil filter and looks to be a version of the lifan cdi(bigg mofo

it doesnt have the yellow wires

dhz has a diagram for lights but i never payed attention when my old man taught me (sadly not alive now)

 

[mattbombers]

has it got an outer rotor kit? and if so, does it have a green/red and a yellow wire from the rotor spare?

 

[spoonta68]

it has outer rotor
byt only has 1 wire spare from stator which is GREEN and red

this diagram supplied by dhz
does it allow me to charge the battery and run lights ansd such from engine?

what do i do to my 155z ork loom to connect it all

im not sure if this is of any use to you, but this is how myne ork is wired, (i take no credit for the pic, it was Sean01 and hes awesome! so helpful)
ps. dont take any notice of the red writing, that was me

 

[Poulsen8r]

Yes, it will charge a battery and run lights but not if you don't have the yellow wires. Are you sure its the 160 HO? The 155z doesn't appear to have charging from what i can see here

TBolt USA, LLC Tech Database - 155cc or 155Z wiring

I would take a look under the flywheel cover. The wires could be hidden under there.

Also found this which says no charging on the 155z

and yes its a new oilfilter 155z

mine has matching wires out of engine ork wiring to loom wiring

no pink or such or grey

 

[spoonta68]

i have the blue wire with white but no grey/black wire

!

i put a 155z in my rx i used a stator of a lifan 14o wit the extra white and yellow wires then i just had to match the colours. ps u can buy the same stator from dhz for $65

 

[paton]

^^ Beat me too it mate was just about to say you will need to get yourself a lifan ORK with the extra wires coming out as i hit the same problem as yourself. Stupid Zongshen ORK are not compatible so you will pretty much have to bin the standard one

 

[spoonta68]

and did any one else discover the top engine bolt is larger on the 125cc than standard chinese pitbikes?

also if anyone has changed the swing arm on there rx to just a bolt and nut not bush/cap/bolt
let me know

 

[prox666]

.

yes i just drilled the top mount of the motor til the bolt slid through

 

[spoonta68]

did ya just put it on its side and drill press it and it going in straight and not braking cases is my main concern

 

[prox666]

.

no i didnt use a drill press i just used my hand drill and went up in drill bit size

 

[spoonta68]

ok sweet as thats the engine saughted now for the swing arm

also has anyone got a lifan stator setup with lighting leads attached?

also is there supposed to a fuse box or something behind headlight as i have a few wires left unattached and unshore what there from

i know 1 is yellow with white strip

personaly i would recomend the lifan stator stock typ

then you should know the rest IE yellow and white , run to reg/rec , run your headlight and tail light direct from yellow stator wire ,IE from rec/rec where you would use a red wire to run to batt i splice a wire from there direct to headlight ,

i find the lifan stators to work the best for a constant good charge to batt
