2007 Konker 250cc

BDIAgencies · 10-03-2012, 06:01 AM

Hi Folks..

I ws given a 2007 Konker 250cc for a winter project. Motor is toast and looking for a new one. Is there any distributors here in Canada that sells a motor/parts ect to fit this bike? Over all the bike is in good shape and is a great winter project for me and my son.

Welcome. I don't know about Canadian suppliers, but I am sure we can help with the resurrection.

depending on your budget, i would want to but a more recent engine in it instead of rebuilding it. Lifan 200cc engine is about 500$ and a Gio 250cc engine is about 700$ brand new of course....

chinapartdepot could maybe help you...

best of luck with your project

Hi BDIAgencies! Thanks for checking in.

Is it a pushrod motor? What about it is toast? Does it have compression?

I thought Konkers were 200cc Suzukis?

Weldangrind · 10-04-2012, 12:04 AM

I hadn't considered that. You're probably right.

Konker sold a whole lineup of ATV's, dirt bikes, and a dual sport bike... The DS was 200cc.

The 250 is strictly a dirt bike. Liquid cooled and very temperamental from what I understand. The fellow that I bought my Konker off of had one, and he couldn't get the dealer prep to the point where he was comfortable selling it so I think he kept it... Not sure about parts either, perhaps Pitster Pro Canada would have parts? Might be worth a check

Edit: Looked up a few on Kijiji, looks like the 2007's were still air cooled, I think the one I was looking at was a 2009

Edit 2: Okay, I'm out to lunch on this one I guess :roll: Googled it and came up with supermoto street legal versions that Konker sold in 2007. I never knew they made a 250 s/m. I know by 2009 the 250 was strictly dirt though! :wink:

Push rod...kick start snapped off flushed with motor. Electric start doesnt work...Compression??? Who knows. I tried jump starting it but it doesn't even come close to compression...I would say no to the compression Q

My guess it would be easier to buy a new motor. It looks like the bike is similar to the Orion Apolo bikes.

Weldangrind · 10-05-2012, 10:05 AM

Do you have any interest in splitting the case to replace the shaft?

FastDoc · 10-05-2012, 11:36 AM

I'm thinking both starting mechanisms are broken because the motor is broken.

It may be worth it to look for a parts bike with a running engine or a new or used motor to repower it.

Its time for some pics. A 200cc engine may be a bolt in.

I was hoping to get a crate motor to throw in it!!...Quick and easy.
