There is a lot of headlight switches on Ebay motorcycle parts. Look for one that is similar to yours for 7/8" handlebars.

Thanks Bar... but still wondering if the Heist switch will work, I mean I guess it will the bikes are almost the same right? Price wise the switch is cheaper for the Heist ...
CCW also charges $10 shipping.Quote:

Don't be afraid to buy from China, shipping is usually pretty fast.
Yeah I see a couple of them that would most likely work, gonna look more into it this weekend when I can make sure it is the switch. That is what it leads me to think it is. maybe the contacts on the thumb switch may be a bit worn.. again, will know once I take it off. Thanks for the assist my fellow rider friend. hey by the way, I officillay hit the 10,000 mile mark yesterday. in fact when I landed in my driveway I was at 10,002 miles. Did a happy dance and popped a brewsky.
near 70°F in NY up from 18°F so i thought id go for a ride on the DF, But a mean winter so far though, leaving me good excuse to work on a new bike.
theres the DF sitting next to its replacement...

and now with a few strategic chops, the LS650 is a proper hardtail chopper

doing the head work too.
porting the head.
also took off the cylinder for a bore and to use a new domed higher compression piston...
turning the 94x94 652cc to 95x94 gives me a 666, how appropriate...

axa,
Wow! Those are some serious modifications to the Suzuki.
I've not tried to register a DF in TX, but I've registered 4 chinese scooters and an Ice Bear trike with absolutely no issues. When you get your MSO, take that and your proof of insurance to the inspection station. They will give you an inspection report that the state requires on an untitled vehicle. Then take that, the MSO, Proof of ins, and a pocket full of money to the tax office.
You can say that again... especially when what ultimately all i really wanted was some more power for the DF...Quote:

The Problem:
I get a slight oil leak when my DF250RTB on the kickstand, it's a very slow leak. I put a newspaper below the leak.. But if I don't ride for a while the all the slow leak
dripping shows..
Where could the leak come from " could it be the gear seal or chain drive gears... any ideas..
Thanks..
I hope this not in the wrong area..
How about a photo up close in the area where you think the leak is coming from?Quote:

You could use an oil dye based on blacklight tech and cheap ebay blacklight $7. But you will need to drain your oil after that me thinks. But honestly you should just be able to degreas your motor and then eyeball it and see where it's coming from. I would say check your drain plug first.Quote:

I did clean the whole area underneath nicely with alcohol completely dry and sprayed it talcum powder, tightened all the bolts, double checked the drain nut.. STILL could not detect the leak "very annoying" .. I'll put some photo shots tomorrow..Quote:

Scroll down to 200cc CG Vertical Motor Oil seal set.
CG200 is like our CG250 aka 167FMM.

I put a fresh white paper under the Bike near the kickstand, will check later this evening...
I think it's from the sprocket area..Attachment 14732Attachment 14733Attachment 14734Attachment 14735Attachment 14736
Will the parts you are referring will work on DF250RTB??
Thanks
PS: here are the pictures.. I'll put some more when there is more oil on the paper...
vips,
Were did you get your DF250RTB?
How tight is your chain? You ever loosen it or oil it? Looks dry as a bone.
If your chain is tight as it come in the crate then that could have damaged that seal.
Take the cover off the front sprocket area and see if you see where the oil is leaking. If the leak appears to be in the sprocket area then remove the sprocket to verify the leak.
The parts I referred to are for a CG200 and the engine in the DF250RTB is a CG250 which is the same engine but with a bigger bore.
I am not going to guarantee the parts will fit but the price shipped is only $10.00 USD.

The fuel tank was leaking, they sent us a new one. Did not mess with the chain at all.
Yeah another thing had happened was the gear link rod broke and I got a new machine made locally at the machine shop and works fine, later I found
one on line and bought that too and kept it as spare.
I'll mess with it tomorrow and see what's going on after I open the cover.
Thanks for helping me out...
Loosen up that chain. That is probably what caused the seal to leak. Hope it didn't hurt anything else. One of the seals in that set will probably fix it if that is the leak.
Gonna order the B version with the springer front end next week. Does anyone who has this new version know if it still has the 45T rear sprocket? Looked at Scooter Depot, but I won't do business with a vender whos adds a $100 surcharge and calls it a "warranty."
The B has the same rear sprocket.
Thanks!
Ok.. let me do that and see.. and I'll give you the report.. thanks man!! :)Quote:

Yep, I believe they all come with the 45 tooth. No big deal to change out for a 35 or so tooth. Either way, loosen up the chain as they all seem to come tight in the crate.Quote:

vips,
You gotta be close to finding your leak.
I have kept it open and wrapped the area with some tissue strip on the gear shaft area..Quote:

Ok... seems the leak is not from the chain sprocket or the gear link area.Quote:

See the pic you might be able to detect it, see on the left of the Black Plastic a small empty area where the oil accumulates.

Here is another picture of the whole area giving you the location of the Black Switch.. "what is that"Attachment 14747Quote:
