Hey Jerry, Nice information and I have the KPX 250 as well. I have looked through the thread and the web and have what sounds like the infamous engine noise at acceleration ping, rattle. I really think it might be cam chain noise. Lifan made it almost impossible to access the cam chain tensioner by using a phillips instead of a bolt to get to the tensioner. You can't even back out the 8mm bolts on the sides of the tensioner because the starter is in the way. So now it is more like to get the starter out to the way you have to remove the exhaust pipe, starter, and then tensioner. I custom made a shorty phillips screwdriver and with vice grips to try and loosen it up but no-go. Lifan has not engineered this task of access to the cam chain tensioner easy at all.
