Re: Dong Fang DF250RTD (Cafe Racer)
So the DF arrived today, amid snowfall here in northern Virginia. Based on the bill of lading it seems that Belmonte bikes is a drop-shipper, as are most online China-bike companies. The bike looks...

Dong Fang DF250RTD (Cafe Racer)
Greetings all!
I've decided to get into Chinamotoing. I've ordered a DF250RTD from Belmonte Bikes after searching for a drop-shipper with decent feedback for this version of the bike. The new... -

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
So I've cleaned out my pilot jet, and now I'm getting ready to re-install it. I took out the mixture screw, and have forgotten the order in which the washer/o-ring and spring should go in. Does...

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
Does anyone know where to get pilot jets for the Deni/Denki PZ30 carbs? I can't get my bike to idle without the mixture screw backed out a good bit (maybe 5 turns or so) and according to most tuning...

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
Just a quick heads-up to you DF owners,
I posted some time ago on changing out the stock coil for one of the orange "performance" coils from Amazon. As it turns out, the coil was the cause of my... -

Re: Headlight Switch
I think it might be some sort of wiring issue. If I start the bike, and use the killswitch to stop the engine, the speedo still wont register until I unplug the speed sensor cable, or turn the bike...

Re: Battery Failures
Found a possible cause. The speedo will work with the engine off, however, when the engine is running the needle won't budge one bit. Clutch adjustment, maybe? I used an electric drill with a...

Re: Battery Failures
I haven't gotten too in-depth with troubleshooting yet, BUT, the cable appears to be an electrical-sensor type and not a mechanical speedo, as one end goes to a 3-wire connector.

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
40 with no washers is correct. You should check the videos of the Colortune, if you haven't seen it before. I thought they had gone out of production, but they can be had online from the UK for...

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
Seeing as how they put in a incorrect amperage fuse, it's entirely possible that the carb was intended for something needing a larger main jet (maybe a DF250RTC, or ATV?) I'm certain that the 167FMM...

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information
It's an unmolested 2010, not a 2012. I purchased it in early 2012, but the bike's frame tag, and the title both show it as a 2010. I might hit some of the local motorcycle stores and look into a...

Re: Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

It still coughs while warm, mostly at speeds below 20mph, in first/second gear. No washer under the needle, and the jet size should be accurate, I read it off of the jets, and the bike... -
