WTB: 6 speed counter balanced 250 motor

commander smurf · 06-15-2023, 01:42 PM

My DF250 RTS engine runs great after 2,300 miles, but the vibration level and lack of a 6th gear mean a lot shaking to get a decent cruise speed, so I've been considering an engine swap to the newer version of the Zongshen engine with a 6th gear and a counter balancer. So far I've been unable to find this motor online, not sure why.

The RTS DF250 frame and front engine mount seem to be made to accept the bulge for the counter balancer, so a swap should be easy, can anyone help me locate an engine source or give any other inputs? Thanks, Phil
