Yeah a yx140

What's the point in buying another 125?

In 6 months you will be having the same conversation.

Just buy a 140

Re: Engines

As ashman saids you will regret not saving towards a yx140 its a incredible engine for the price compared to the lifan 125s etc,

We may have a used engine thats been refurbed if you dont mind a used engine?

Drop me a email callan@cwbikes.co.uk

Thanks cw bikes

Re: Engines

Stock v stock

Z125 over yx 140 anyday

Alot more options available and performance parts with the z125 that would make it plow past a 140

And wouldn't get a "refurbed" engine.

Z125 230 from pbs

And who stocks all of the parts for the z125 engines? I've had trouble all year with getting parts for the z125 engine,

I would stick to a yx-140 engine as you no where you stand,

And yea fair comment about refurb always buy new engines when it comes to pitbikes, but all comes down to monies at the end of the day,

Thanks callan

Re: Engines

Tried all pitbike z125 importers and they all shift the engines but had no small engine parts in stock, oil seal for oil filter cover, cranks etc.

Where the yx-140 engine parts are no problem at all.

Only our personal opinion


Thanks cw

The oil seal is just a oring... use your imagination on that one.

Again, all parts from gearbox, kick start shafts etc are available in the UK. Ive brought many parts as ive built many.

Look harder.
