Hi everyone. I found this forum after a Google search, trying to find information/parts for my recently acquired '06 Lifan 250cc cruiser. I used to ride dirt bikes in my youth (about 40 years ago), but this is the first motorcycle I have ever owned. It's in rough shape and currently not running. The engine cranks, but that's about it. I'm looking forward to getting it going, to do some weekend rides with my son, who also just bought a new motorcycle.

That is the copy of the Yamaha Virago 250 V twin or otherwise known as the Lifan LF250. They sure copied a great little twin with that one. Just Google search Lifan LF250 parts or type the same into ebay and you should be able to get just about anything you want for that. They did sell pretty good here in the states. Good luck with it and keep us posted. I for one like a good resurrection story.

^^^ What he said^^^^ I owned a Yamaha Route 66 which that engine is a copy of. Lots of parts have been confirm to fit the Lifan V-Twin. If you can find a Virago 250 service manual that will probably help you out.
