newbie and new to me
 
I just got a 2007 cool sports co200gy for 620 has 1900 miles the bike is in great shape never layed down I have to get a shift lever for it and get the rear blinkers fixed ( probably bulb)along with replace a front blinker cause its broken. I've read bout checking all the bolts and nuts on these anything else I should look for and where can I find the shift lever for my bike.

Welcome. A shift lever should be easy to find. Xr200 part likely fit.

stretch8668 03-08-2014 09:58 PM

I know it's the 163fml if it helps

katoranger 03-09-2014 09:36 AM

I may have a shift lever in a box of parts. Will look this afternoon if I remember.

Weldangrind 03-09-2014 12:46 PM

Welcome!

If you end up buying a shift lever, make sure it's spring loaded to protect the shifter shaft.

stretch8668 03-09-2014 01:21 PM

Can anyone send me a link of a shifter that'll fit cause I don't even know what original one looked like or does Iit not matter as long as its a 200cc

Weldangrind 03-10-2014 10:41 AM

It matters if you have a shift linkage (which I doubt). If not, all Honda clones use the same shifter, AFAIK. It has a slight S-shape to it, which accomodates the fat stator cover, vs. the Honda XR200 shifter, which has a straight shifter.

I had a quick look on www.taobao.com, but I haven't found anything yet. Try searching under CB200.

Weldangrind 03-10-2014 10:56 AM

I bet this one would be ideal: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=...id=20091016330

It is only $5.86 US plus shipping.

stretch8668 03-10-2014 11:43 AM

So something like this http://www.motoparts-superstore.com/...kart-2254.html cause I ordered one like this http://m.ebay.com/itm/300859823972?nav=SEARCH

SpudRider 03-10-2014 02:36 PM

Welcome; we are glad you joined us. :hi:

stretch8668 03-11-2014 08:09 AM

Also can anyone find a pic or tell me where the idle screw is I already bookmarked page for c clip but can't find one for idle and can anyone tell me where I can get a owners manual for the lifan 163fml for free in pdf

culcune 03-11-2014 12:37 PM

For parts, try Hooper Imports...they specialize in Lifan parts which in 2007 was pretty much the model from which seemingly many of these bikes were made from, or these companies manufactured bikes for Lifan under contract and also sold them under their own name ; i.e. HiBird.
Www.hooperimports.com

Also, because I have befriended them and they are a distributor with many Chinese contacts (besides just what they carry) is Excalibur Motorsports. www.atv4usa.com 909-591-8800 as well as a 1-800 number on their site somewhere...

stretch8668 03-13-2014 08:41 AM

Has anyone had to replace the bearings in the swing arm where bolt goes threw

Weldangrind 03-13-2014 09:07 AM

I haven't done it on a China bike yet, but I have changed the swingarm bushings on a China ATV. I found Yamaha bushings that were a perfect fit, much better quality and around $7.00 each. For the Win!

stretch8668 03-13-2014 12:24 PM

Is it difficult to replace I'm not worried bout taking swing arm off just replacing them as I'd imagine there pressed in

Here's are some pics of bike did I get a good deal on it it startedsecond kick and wasn't able to drive it as I'm waiting for shift lever to get here and rear turn signals aren't working also found out gotta put heli coil in as its been cross threaded but it still holds plug and has great compression btw its a 2007 cool sport co200gy with 1900 miles and plan on fixing things I've mentioned and regear it performance exhaust performance air filter and re jet it also needs a battery and paid 620

Weldangrind 03-13-2014 09:16 PM

That's a pushrod motor, so it's really easy to just change the head, rather than use a Helicoil. Your call.

Why do you need to change the swingarm bushings? Is there excessive play? If so, can you take up the slack by tightening the nut?

stretch8668 03-13-2014 11:45 PM

I thought the 163fml was an overhead cam and 169fml was pushrod. I need to change bushings as theres play in swing arm when move it side to side and bearings in wheel are fine.

Weldangrind 03-14-2014 12:41 AM

That is a genuine pushrod clone.

Put the bike on a stand, remove the rear wheel and get a real sense of how the swingarm is. My guess is that the nut is loose. I use two shallow nuts and torque them together.

stretch8668 03-14-2014 08:31 AM

That's good to know about the engine in case need parts and there's play wete bolt goes threw bushing ill have to double check if it warms up today.

stretch8668 03-14-2014 11:49 AM

Got the shift lever and bike won't shift into any gear any ideas btw clutch handle is really firm.

Weldangrind 03-14-2014 06:47 PM

Your clutch cable requires lubrication and possibly adjustment.

stretch8668 03-14-2014 07:02 PM

I hope its just adjustment I can see "arm" move when press lever in. What kind of adjustments should I do and how should clutch feel like

stretch8668 03-15-2014 10:44 AM

Update: adjusted clutch and can feel it shift up and down with hand but neutral light stays on and still won't move I think clutch won't disengage am I right or what else could it be and how do I solve it.

Weldangrind 03-15-2014 01:11 PM

Are you trying this with the engine running or off?

stretch8668 03-15-2014 02:28 PM

Engine runningand can feel it go into gear with hand regardless if clutch is pressed or not and bike still moves freely while in gear

Weldangrind 03-16-2014 12:18 AM

Try disconnecting the cable at the engine end, and kick it in to gear with the engine off. Can you still roll the bike back and forth? If not, the clutch cable is likely seized. If so, you have an internal clutch problem or a transmission problem.

stretch8668 03-16-2014 09:36 AM

I did as u said yesterday and it still rolled in first and second I'm gonna go outside today when it warms up and see if anything is loose or what's broken

stretch8668 03-16-2014 11:16 AM

How will I know if its the clutch any way to tell by looking at it

stretch8668 03-16-2014 02:21 PM

Well I took the clutch cover off as it was a mildly 30° out today and got some bad news that I'm hoping is an easy fix. I noticed that the clutch is fine but there's a bolt that came out (look at bottom of case) which im assuming goes in hole to right as its threaded and the one directly above it is loose also. I know this cause the star shaped piece near shift fork wiggles when move it. Unfortunately I can't do anything til take clutch off and piece next to it. Also when I drained oil say lots of tiny metalic pieces in oil but no slivers in filter screen so I'm hoping its an easy fix and nothings messed up.

Weldangrind 03-16-2014 04:09 PM

That explains it. You'll need to get a special tool to remove the centrifugal pickup (which is just above the clutch in your pic, secured with three Phillips screws) and the clutch. This tool will remove both parts for you: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-Motorc...909af6&vxp=mtr

When you remove the cover from the centrifugal pickup, you'll likely find some silver sludge inside. Make sure you clean it all out. It's a good idea to replace the gasket that is under the cover as well. If you have access to an impact wrench, it will make removal of the three Phillips screws much easier. They strip easily.

When installing the bolts that worked loose, clean them well and secure them with blue Loctite 242 or red Loctite 262. Use 242 on the Phillips screws.

stretch8668 03-16-2014 04:17 PM

I already had phillips screws out how I found out needed special tool and clutch is held in place with snap ring thanx for link now I know what gotta get

stretch8668 03-17-2014 06:22 PM

The bolt on bottom is screwed into case my question is what goes into hole on right

Weldangrind 03-18-2014 10:50 AM

Not sure. It looks like there are two available points for the shifter detent, which is the item at the bottom of your case. It has a spring-loaded roller that applies pressure to the shifter star, and that's what you feel when you shift gears. When you remove the clutch, shifter detent and shifter star, it should all be clear. If not, let us know, and I'll remove a cover on a spare engine I have.

stretch8668 03-18-2014 11:50 AM

Ok thanx I just ordered tool some I can take that piece off so can then take clutch off then I can tighten and loc tite everything. I also got some blue gasket maker and bought blue and red loc tite

stretch8668 03-18-2014 07:01 PM

What is shifter star suppose to look ln first just in case its outta wack

stretch8668 03-19-2014 12:14 AM

Any idea where I can get an engine manual for this and I also found out they had two versions of the 163fml

Weldangrind 03-19-2014 01:01 AM

Don't worry about the placement of the shifter star, since it has a small hole on the back that engages with a pin. It only goes on one way.

Your engine is identical to the CG125, which was very popular in Brazil and the UK; there is a ton of info for it online.

stretch8668 03-19-2014 08:50 AM

Awesome thanks found an engine repair manual for the cg125 and its extremely similar to the 200 I'm hopfully gonna tackle this this weekend if I get tool and if the weathers "warm" enough

stretch8668 03-22-2014 03:38 PM

Got tool today and tightened bolt I'm hoping that's what problem was leaving it empty overnight to let silicone cure. The shifting star wasn't even on the pin on shifting shaft ill see how it goes tomorrow after fill it back up with oil.
