Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

The vendor sent a 15 tooth sprocket and also it's not for a 520 chain so I sent it back.
I'm trying again at a different site.

Stock 13 tooth sprocket installed. 14 tooth is going to be a tight fit.

Inside of cover. Appears to be about 1/4" space for the 14 tooth. I guess the cover could be left off but I'm not going to do it and in fact I am going to install a chain guard to protect the family jewels.
Look down while you are riding and you will see why. :eekers:

If the 14 is a no go then the reducing the size of back sprocket is next.:rolleyes1:

BTW, Got my Florida title in the mail today so all is good there.:clap:

Gotta love when ordering online and they send wrong items...
Thanx for all the pics, it looks like its going to be a really tight fit, unless your willing to hack up the guide.
You will wind up needing a rear sprocket regardless.

Yeah, I think you are right but would prefer to replace the front so I will try again.

thanks for the info Barnone, and congrats on the title.
I'm hoping to get legal on Saturday, today and tomorrow nothing but rain. I'm hoping to get in some riding on Sat and Sunday maybe put on 20 - 30 miles on the back roads.
hows the bike handling now with some mileage on her?

barnone can u hit me up on my cell and tell me the hell u have been through with this company cause im going through it..chuck number deleted thanks

Chuck, I have sent your number to Barnone privately as it is never a good idea to publish phone numbers, meanwhile tell us more as a few people will be trying to buy through these guys and others and if there are continuing problems we all need to hear; just stick to facts however angry you are and don't defame if you can help it!

don't get the message easily do you? are you on uppers or what? relax and re read the thread

Cheer up mate! You get that crap for all sorts of things not just chinabikes! Humans are bastards and I bet you aren't perfect either. Fuck, they just sacked 21 priests in one of your USA cities for diddling little boys.

Relax and re-read this thread from the beginning with a beer in your hand and you will see that despite some stuff-ups and suspicion, two of the guys got their bikes, and it looks like legal and running well. More have been ordered. Just check it over before you sign for it, have some mates with you if possible if you have any that aren't speed freaks like you, as witnesses and backup - and a camera or two and take pics from before the crate comes off the truck. Make sure it is all there before you let the driver go. If they are going to stuff around with you, you can do it back - but the driver is probably just a dude doing a job. Then do all the commonsense stuff, slowly. Check all the bits and pieces are connected and OK. Info elsewhere here but ask if you are not sure.

Ring them up and hassle for the papers, then enjoy the ride man! its a cheap bike and looks like a good one. If you are all angry and fucked in the head you will put it together wrong and hate the bike from the beginning. That is stupid.

heres my bikeAttachment 3372please help

You are almost amusing, slow down. What do you want us to do, ring them up for you?
You have some advice already if you wnat to listen to it, and Barnine and Gardo are cool and wise, they both managed to sort it all out well for themselves. I hope you can too but the way you are going you will fuck it all up. Take a downer and relax. Its a nice bike. I hope you ride slower than you post.
