I got the new cover today and starting undercoating the frame. I think it will look good and I can easily touch it up.
I can't find a 3/8 bit to drill out the engine mounting holes for the stock bolts so I will have to go down to the store tonight. Also I am goind to have to make a lower rear mount for the engine. I may have it running next week. Allen

Drill the holes to 7/16" and got some new bolts, but I mismeasured and will have to go back and get longer bolts.
Went ahead and ordered the custom lower motor mount so that I could put the lifan into the ct90 frame. The price was good enough not to mess with making my own. I needed other parts too so did so one stop shopping. When those come I should be able to make it into a runner. The undercoating doesn't seem to be holding well. I may have to strip it and start over on that. Maybe I bought to cheap of stuff. I have a second frame if anyone is considering one of these projects. Allen

Not yet. UPS claim in process. They were suppose to contact the sender next and then I guess get back to me.
I got a new cover already and that is ready to go. I just want the cost to replace the cover. Not a big deal. Allen

ImEasy. The intake didn't fit. Wrong angle. Carb hit the frame.
I found a longer one that angles to the right. Have it coming. Sold most of the stock engine parts and made all my money back plus some that I gave for both bikes. Got my box for DRatv with the conversion mounts. Bought a couple of new bolts. When the intake gets here I should be able to make it run. I think I am going to give this bike to my Dad. Allen

I am going to put it in the forsale section for next to free if someone can use it.
The exhaust looks to be a winner though. Didn't get a chance to work on it yet. Allen

I got the engine bolt in place and the lower motor mount in place.
The new intake came today and it still didn't angle enough. I clearanced the frame with a hammer and got it to fit. I guess next step is to see if I can get it to fire up. Allen

I got a seat. Need to add some foam and make a new cover for it.

CTs are getting parted out. I think I am going to try to put the 125cc engine into my nice clean dr250 frame.
