Dragon 3/4 Mini Chopper Project Resurrection
I am going to start working on my mini chopper I have had for 2 years. Life has been busy and I put it off. I am going to strip it and have it repainted as the paint is peeling and doesnt look that good. I will try to post progress. Anyone have any tips on wiring or anything please feel free to share. I am excited to get this road worthy and legal to ride.

If it runs reliably, I wouldn't make any changes to the wiring at this time. Since you're not riding a dual sport, you're not subjecting the harness to much shock (no pun intended).
Looking forward to this build! |
It runs good but the wiring I need done is blinkers and tailights to make it legal here in indiana. Not very good with hooking stuff up. It has a headlight but everytime you hit a bump it goes out which I figure is the cheap china wiring.
|
I bet it's the headlight plug. If you remove the plug from the headlight, you might be able to make the connectors a little tighter, maybe with a small screwdriver.
It would be easiest to install signals by buying a new wiring harness. If you could find a China dual sport harness for cheap, you could extract everything you need for signals, and then substitute signals that suit your chopper. |
Does forklift not post on this board anymore

Gonna start tearing down the chopper today. Have a couple guys offer to sand blast and paint it for me for free. Just wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram for this or close to it. Thanks and stay tuned.

Well she is all stripped down except for the forks
|
Dropped the seat pan, back fender, and tank off for paint. Just need to drop frame off for sandblasting. It's going to be pwdercoat black. Getting excited
|
The frame coating will be tough as nails.
|
Yeah kinda worried about that.
|
I am trying to access a wiring diagram for this bike on here but every time I click link it takes me back to beginning. Anybody know why?
|
Yes, it's because of the recent upgrade. Try using the search function, which should take you directly to the page you seek.
|
Anyone know where I can find a clutch sensor for the Lifan 200cc on this. I've googled and only found 1 place that only sells to dealers. None on ebay
|
Sorry meant gear sensor
|
Found one at motor wholesale inc. said they have other mini chopper parts. Woo
|
I found a chopper tire that I can replace mine with. Mine is a 205 and this one is a 180. Could I still use it. I know speedo will be off but didn't know if it would hurt the bike
|
How wide is the rim? What size is the stock rear tire?
|
Stock is 205/40/14 but china made so cant find them. This one is 180/40/14

Wow has it really been almost a yeR. Been busy with life and finally got my frame painted. It looks sweet. I hope it doesn't tAke me a year to put back together. Will hopefully keep updates
|
Looking good. I can certainly appreciate how life gets in the way of motorcycles. That is a wicked rake on the steering tube.
|
All right after 2 years I finally was piddling around and decided to check out the engine. Well low and behold from sitting my piston and cylinder were rusted pretty good. Luckily the piston cleaned up easily and Im pretty sure I can get the cylinder the same way. Well cause I was pissed I forgot to check out the torque settings for the bolts and didn't know if anyone had torque settings for a lifan 200cc 163fml or steer me somewhere that does. Thanks.
|
Not off the top of my head, but an XR200 will be really close. That'll help your search.
