The back 2 mounts fit (mostly had to file out the top one a little) the front mounts where nowhere close, 1-1.5" off the top was in the center of the head on the xl and the back of the head on the lifan. both motors are 5 speed,
The xl motor ran fine, I just had to push start it, and the replacement starter shaft I found was close to breaking too. (and they are 150.00 if you find them )
The Xl175 was an odd duck of the Xl line, Just about all the parts for the engine are unique to it. Having ridden both (the lifan with a flat front tire too ) the Lifan had more power. I will possibly have to regear a little but we will see. (I am using the Xl sprockets. )
