Lifan xr 250

Hi Chinariders,

I was looking around in the forum for any input on this bike. It is new to our market. Looks like my tornado XR250 at 1/4 of the price.

Anyone knows anything good or bad about it?

It looks a lot like the early GY2 bike, with a counter-balanced pushrod motor, front disc / rear drum brakes. I bet if you consistently changed the oil and set the valves occasionally, it would be a reliable bike for a long time.

Thank you for the reply. Weldangrind. the GY2 is a 250cc?

It's usually a 200, but there could be 223 or 230 versions out there.
