Question Zongshen 125cc or Lifan 125cc

Looking to buy a new engine. Zongshen is obviously the best brand but is it worth paying an extra £100 for it. Also will it be harder to get parts for it than a Lifan?

Zonga will ride with the YX140s.


Only downside, is they are banned from some race series. Depends how serious you want to use it.
