    don't know anything specific about your engine, but the maintenance is the same for any of these engines, be they chinese, japanese or whatever. Change your oil every few thousand km, use 15W40 in the winter and 20W50 in the summer.

    And try to have cooling fluid in the system when you break your engine in! (sorry, bad joke)

    Hi Kennon, do you know how easy it is to remove the baffles from my 2011 Jinling JLA-21B 250cc quad?

    Thanks
    Dan.

    Dan,
    your gunna have to cut the exhaust apart or get the silencer apart and remove what your deem necessary to stop it impeading the flow of exhaust gasses be warned it will get hot and will probably crack from the heat
