hello, im rebuilding '01 zong 200gy lets talk china bikes

[patrickzong]

I mean I live in alabama and the cops probably dont even know what dot is hahaha

it may fit your roketa im not to sure, if it does not fit ,finding some mount points to drill holes isn't that difficult (dont be afraid of that airbox, its your friend when it comes to this just make sure you put some good sealant on the inside of the airbox where the screw came through)

my zongs original tail piece does not line up with the new side panels
I dont mind personally because I think that the back end looks pretty cool without it
when the new tail light comes in Im going to mess around with the idea of mounting it on top of the tail instead of on the bottom if that isn't to complicated for me to explain haha

[Weldangrind]

That makes perfect sense. I'm sorting out how to deal with the existing Roketa tail, since the fender is in pieces. I have a generic black rear fender, and I'm hoping to make that work.

I had a little time so I thought i would post a better picture of what i ment about that back end and not having the tail piece. It will improve with that tail light im waiting on.

You can also get plastic side covers from Zongshen America, or Taobao.

I would go back to the original pieces but i dont have the lower plastic part that covers up the electronics on the right side. I would love to move those electronics but I can find a safe place to do so.

Are you talking about the black side covers with the round "dimples?"

First of all, check to make sure the bolt on the shift lever is tight. If the bolt won't tighten fully, remove the shift lever and widen the gap between the bolt with a hacksaw/dremel tool. After you re-install the shift lever, you will be able to tighten the bolt more securely. Also, rotate the shift lever down a notch, so you don't have to lift the lever so high in order to upshift.

If the bolt on the shift lever is tight and rotating the lever downward doesn't help, you probably need to swap the dowels on the shift drum which is engaged by the shift shaft pawl. To perform this procedure you need to drain the engine oil and remove the right crankcase cover. You can read about this procedure at the following thread.

Hopefully you can fix the problem by rotating the shift lever and/or tightening the bolt. If those fixes don't work, I suggest you start a new thread on your shift lever repair, and take lots of photographs. We can talk you through the repair, step-by-step, and the resulting thread will be a helpful resource for future Zong owners who encounter this problem.

FINALLY got goodies from china
still working on it, will post more pictures

[Weldangrind]

I like that rear fender. Does it have a provision for a plate?

[SpudRider]

It's always nice to see goodies arrive! Both headlight and fender look great.
