My tank (3.8 gal, wanted the width due to wide new seat) clears bars with room for a tool bag.
Issue came up with Paughco pepcock. Straight down design, left the system too close to the head (right side fuel bung). Returned & now waiting for a Pingel 90 degree pepcock. Also discovered the 3/16" hose barb spec from mfg. was ID not OD. Jegs sells a nice brass reducer that I will use between new filter & carb.

Does anyone know what our motor is other than a counter-balanced 231cc? Honda design bored out, knock-off?

Elephant in the room guys, we know our bike except this. Has any one found the key ?

I thought that the DF had the Zongshen motor similar to the lifan but without the kickstart spline

DanDaMan if you don't mind me asking how much did you pay total for everything. How long did it take you to get your bike from killer motorsports, and how is there customer service?
Thanks

May have been original design/patent but Zongshen now makes the motor for Dong Fang
