Brakes... upgrade the brakes lol

Apple doesn't have that app you mentioned :mad:

That's definitely a hard lesson learned! I found a die forsale and I'm measuring the thickness I would need to grind the new weld down. Hopefully it works. If not then I'll look into upgrading the forks or buying a parts bike.

Can you please stay on topic. Thank you. :cheers2:

Ok thanks. I see if they have an app for the apple phones.

Just curious what other form of pic loading from a phone works? As mentioned above I do not use a desktop or laptop. On 4 of the other diesel forums I am on, photobucket seems to be the way photos are loaded and nobody complains or mentions they can't see the photos.

Sorry but I I'll not post up thumbnail pics. For the 1st reason the photobucket app doesn't have thumbnail option and 2nd I only use my phone for looking on forums. Plus I prefer pics without having to click them to view. Sorry for anyone not liking normal pics uploaded. Anywho anyone ever added...

It's 2015 we all have smart phones and wifi.. come on now lol

It's the OD thread on the tube. It's the threads below the nut where the knurling thingy tightens down on the bearing. You can see in the 2nd pic how it's not seated due to the threads being worn away from the previous bearings that were all busted up. That head set is new but the threads on the...

I don't do thumbnails. I despise them on the other forums I'm on. I would rather not have to click on a pic to see it. Scrolling through a thread to see the pics is a lot better IMO.

I believe you're correct. ^ the threads will not tighten past the wear spot. I'm thinking if I lay a bead of metal across it and grind it down as close as I can, then run the die down and hopefully it will recut the threads. What are yalls opinion on that? Pics of it as requested...

I'll get some pics when I get home this morning. I'm in west TN. It's just a regular doodle bug. Just a name I gave it.

Anyone ever have to re-thread the handle bar forks? Idk what the pitch is, it's on a Murray track 2 mini bike. The guy I bought it off let his kids run it till the bearings literally destroyed. There is a bare spot in the threads, I wanna add metal to it and grind it down and re-thread it.... Or...

I don't think I've ever heard one of the V-twins with true dual exhaust. Most just run two into one. I say go true duals with some throaty little mufflers!

What kinda damage did the crank have on it?

Don't forget valve springs. They don't come in the stage 4 kit for the hemi so it'll only rev the 5300-5500 rpms. I used the 26 lb white springs for $10. Also you have to remove the low oil shut off solenoid when installing the billet rod due to the oil slinger is gonna take it out :thumbsup:

Are there any minor upgrades you can get for this style Lifan engine?

Do yall know if those numbers reference anything?

If you want to increase the cam lube process just buy a bottle of zinc which is what's in the Lucas engine break in oil. Just add half an ounce or less to it and you'll be good. Rotella T 15w40 has the most zinc additive in it but geared more for Diesel engines since they all still utilize flat...
