I agree Louis.. Its a big PITA (sorry edoggy) but this thread and the summertime pic thread in trikesylvania are to that come to mind right away.

I get lost trying to scroll up and down,, side to side.. etc. and even tho I'm on dsl it still takes a while.

Just because you have a large moniter and it maybe centered for you.. it doesn't mean the rest of us do.

at least he's cutting back on the you tube links tho...

I am making changes.

I know your trying dog! LMAO!!!!

All you gotta do is set the pic size to like 800x600 in your photobucket. Thats a pretty decent size pic and you can still see alot of detail.

Hey thanks for the heads up on the pics size.Didn't know that.

edog, the lifans are patterned after the atc70 engines. The atc70 engines are smaller than the atc90 engines. All the bolt holes will not line up. You will have to make some mods.

The bolt holes have to be close though, I thought the atc90 engine nearly bolts into the atc70. Is there more then just opening up one of the frame mount holes?

Can you please tell me more about this?

if they bolt up, go with the 140 lifAN(14.3hp), there was a race 160 lifan(15.4hp) that bolted to the atc 70 to...

Dr. ATV sells conversion brackets to mount the 70 based motors intoa 90-110 ct chassis, which shares the same bolt pattern as the ATC variant. Biggest issue will be the kick start.

Yes,I am aware of kickstarter.
Do you have a link to those conversion brackets?

[Vealmonkey]

I didn't even know about conversion brackets. The 90\110 rear fenders just lift right off, not like the 70 fenders, a kicker would be no problem. How else do you think you get a clutched, bored and stroked honda cl90 engine in an atc90? But you can convert either the lifan or cl90 to pull start if you want, it's not that hard.

Found the link.

edog, beware of spending big money on an exhaust. Most of the pit bike pipes won't fit an atc70, let alone who knows how they fit in a longer wheelbase trike.

Heres the conversion setup

Its not the fenders that bother me about the kickstart (infact you could easily trim them so as to not even have to remove them like on a blaster), as much as the fact that it kicks backwards and there isn't much length between the tires and the motor. Most lifans have the straight kicker which is about 7-1/2" long and the kicker itself is foot width, so say at least 4" wide. With 22x11-8 knobbies (Turftamers) on stock wheels and axle, the room between the frame and the tire sidewall is limited. Large offset wheels (as edog plans) would help alleviate the issue in addition to a wider axle, But its not as convenient as for a stocker. One could make a shorter kicker, but then its not as easy to kick the motor over (for the density challenged, my 220lbs frame with a torn MCL and LCL kicks over 125s just sitting on the bike, I could probably deal with a short kicker) so a shorter kicker probably wouldn't be the best option for the little ones, or the fellows just tipping the 100lbs mark. The more convenient option is the electric start models, but you'd need the one with the starter on the bottom, as the top mount is in the way of the backbone of the frame. All the 140 (138cc) models I've seen on the net are kick only. Battery could be easily located under the rear grab bar if you don't have a stock exhaust, or one of the fenders like the ATC125M.

The rear tires are 20X11X8.The rims have a off set of 5" the kicker is going to kick arse

[evand]

looks good man, thats one wide front max!

Folks, I cant see edog's pics, anyone know why? :-( They appear as small boxes with an X in the middle
