    My apologies on the previous reply. It's something I've found with written messages, they can often be read the wrong way. Thank you for the information I needed. I agree the bike should be doing a lot better than it is. While cleaning and re-lubing the chain today I have noticed a complete lack of care the previous owner had for the bike.

    I also noticed recently a picture of a LIFAN that looks like it had the front forks and wheel off a V-star/Virago.

    Thanks again guys. Appreciate immensely

    I'd like to thank you guys for your patience and help.
    My lifan is running the 530 set on it so I either have to find a 530 front sprocket or replace front and rear sprockets and replace the chain with a 520.

    Your help has been a life saving to say the least.

    Evidently the Lifan has a heavy duty chain, here is a vendor that sells a complete stock set, does it look the same as what is on yours? I would send them an email asking if they know if their are any other options for the LF250-P?

    notice the front sprocket looks like it is shimmed out, if you went all new 520 take that into consideration.

    I wonder if the Yamaha and Lifan are interchangeable, the front sprockets look different to me.

    Another question for you guys, is the Virago front fork setup the same as LIFAN ie: direct bolt on.

    I know it's a big ask but I have plans for fixing her up
