? about rain
 
Anybody have any electrical or guage cluster problem if it gets wet from a good rain? Will my blinkers and key ignition be OK? It's about to rain bigtime here at work and it's never been wet. Don't want to call the wife to pick me up if it don't start.

mine rides in the rain fine, but dont attempt to use the alarm until things dry out... it may seem fine but it probably will go crazy in a while...

I left my bike out and it rained on it all night, No problems..Just a little rust where the paint was scratched.

I got lucky and the storm missed us sot she's still dry. Thanks for the piece of mind anyway.

Jim, alarm? What alarm? I have to yell "HEY, STOP"....thats my alarm. I wouldn't mind having an alarm. Where does it hook up? I might keep an eye on ebay.

I just found the steering lock on mine. I may use it if I have to park in risky places.

At work It is locked in a compound behind security fences with cameras.

You have a lifan gy5... you should have an alarm (shouldnt you???)... does your bike have a keychain with buttons on it... remote starter/alarm control... It is like ugly funny camo color

No alarm on the American Lifan GY-5's. Some Lifan bikes have 'em, some don't. No GY-5 I've had in stock had any.

Maybe you got lucky Jim, They had an extra :lol:

Jim 06-28-2007 09:03 PM

Ahh, ok well the canadian lifans come stock with them.

MOTOXtreme 06-28-2007 09:56 PM

yup, thought about the canadian versions after the post.

my steering lock almost fell off, a bolt managed to work its way out of it. Although its a cheap POS lock anyway....

Anyone have a spare bolt laying around for a steering lock that i can borrow with no intent to return? :)

katoranger 06-29-2007 05:45 PM

I may have a bolt. PM me.

i know i'm diggin up an old thread but I was tightening the bar that holds the ignition/speedo/turn signals and I saw a little silver bar, is that the steering lock? if so how does it work?
