    Looking to build a ripper.

    in Honda 70 talk

    Posted

    There are so many choices for an engine that my head is going to explode! madboom.gif

    And I keep finding myself saying " oh for another 50 bucks I could get this one" over and over again. My $400 budget is now looking like about $600 plus the junk I need to get it running, new plastics, paint, seat cover, exhaust, etc.

    Damn things are a money pit! 1sm376money.gif

    A buddy of mine in Utah, loves these in their race pit bikes and runs them in his 70's

    What carb are you running on that?

    i thought the budget was 400...steppin up to the pitster is well worth the extra 200 bones IMO if u can swing it. from what ive read that 155ho is a little monster, im thinkin about buyin a PP 155 pitbike this spring. i dont have any dunes to ride so i need suspension b4 i can use any more power than my 120 without destroying my back. whatever u decide, please post pics and a review. it seems ur tastes are real close to mine so ill be watching for your Ripper build closely.

    The $400 budget is the goal but we all know how that goes! As soon as I buy a power plant I will start a build thread.

    When you buy yours get me one to, you know I’m good for it. :grin:

    Sucker! You beating me is the reason I'm looking at an upgrade! Let me know if you are serious because I'll try to get a package deal, if possible.

    When you have time give Vince a call at TBolt and talk to him about the pitster/Piranha/GPX/and so on. All these motors are the same, he has a good insight on the motors and what would be ideal for what you want to spend in cash wise. Just keep in mind buying the motor doesn't mean everything will fit. Once motor is purchased then there is the intake (talk about a hassle)(best advice contact Gody at hondaatc70.com) then there is exhaust and of course the electrical which is simple until wiring for lights. then there is the purchase of the voltage regulator/rectifire and then lights and so on and on and on. I know atc70.com has the 125 motor with the installation kit its worth it if you want something to bolt in and rider.

    I installed the Piranha 140cc 12hp motor and i really like the power, i still need to dial in the gearing, motor purchase was affordable i think it was purchasing the other stuff that jacked the price up. :laughing:

    Nothing I have ever built has been easy. Everything is a struggle, a battle & a hassle. But I love to build sh*t. I'm going to take my time & do this one right.

    I'm not too familiar with that motor but it should haul some a$ for sure. My 110 is fast enough! laughing.gif

    I wonder what motors those R55 guys from last year started with or if they sell larger Lifan motors that fit right in. They were up there like 160-185cc! dayum.gif They are just stupid fast.

    It seems like a pretty good engine for the money (not looking to spend a grand!) and most people seem to like the Lifan brand.

    Hi all. I have three stock 70's that are begging for some upgrades. Right now I'm in the middle of a honda 110 swap (thanks for the help Chris!). That one should be ready to run (but won't be pretty) for the Regatta. I want that one to be a dependable camp bike that will haul my big butt around. The second one needs to be a little more evil and a real ripper. So I'm thinking of a Lifan 140 clutch engine. This one... All black Lifan 140 with carb Looking for opinions on this type of engine for haulin' some butt.

    So, my question is: What engine would you use for around 400 bucks? What do you think of the one in the link? Thanks all.
