Your neighbors may be ridding these?

God knows where did they found those.

I thought that this bike is phased out at least five years ago.

Most interesting thing (for me) is his engine. Looks like compilation of already existing parts: note the cap tappet, oil screen cap, water pump...

Cannot imagine anyone getting excited over one of those, they are cheap though.

Lifan has added more engines to its website, they have a few new small horizontals.

Lifan displayed a 250cc DOHC Motocross standard at a recent trade show, the name on it was “DEEPA” it showed up under the Hamachi brand name, Hamachi’s are sold out of Macedonia.

I’ve seen a few You Tube videos of bikes with the Lifan 250cc oil cooled SOHC single and the engine sounded rough in the videos, seemed to have allot of knocking sound out of it?
I have also heard the 250cc DOHC water cooled and it sounded productive and smooth. That engine also comes in a 300cc version too. However not for the DEEPA, it is advertised on Hamachi’s site as there RCX-250-4T and at

2,340.00 EUR

2,559.61 USD

Hamachi is utilizing both engines in that model and for the same prices, their specs are wrong which is disheartening. They also offer very little information or images of the bikes. They seem to both come with either 18*21 or 17*17 wheel options.

There was another model at the same show that bore the DP insignia.
What is most interesting to me is the disconnection between the companies website listed models and what shows up at trade shows. Seems that what is displayed at any trade show should also be displayed on the website. With details about the models, for instance this model looks very interesting, a totally differnt design from what we typically see out of Lifan.

Deepa is the Sanskrit word for "lamp", "light". ...

I would say somebody needs to turn the lights on.

To use the word at a trade show and then not insure that use of the word with "Lifan" or even Hamachi brought about information. If you combine two words then insure that all your metatags online direct inquirers to websites that contain detailed information.
By the way Hamachi is a Japanese word for a fish commonly used in Sushi called an Amberjack.

I would now like to address the theory that the west has kept the east from progressing....anyone?

**MJH** · 07-07-2015, 10:01 PM

I would have thought that Lifan would have embraced MV Augusta for engineering and designs. The whole issue of false pride comes to mind, in that getting to were you want to be is something to be proud of. If you are smart you take the help....if not or you dispute it and its validity and the results of that, that's another story.

**Zorge** · 07-08-2015, 04:22 PM

OK, so what forementioned DP stands for? Double Penetration?

This "Deepa's" DOHC you mentioned, looks to me like a plain "Yingang" AX-1 clone.

I know that you are more interested in classic designs, so, this... concept, transferred to classic design, would look something like this:

Yes,. I know. It is abomination.
