Never got the decals off.

Instrument Cluster
 

Here is the bikes instrument Cluster and how it stands today. I like the look much better with out the tank plastic but guess I should use it to help cool the engine? The bike runs great right out of the crate up here at 8500 feet. Ive had to do nothing to the carb and it purrs.

Do you mind giving a short rundown of what you added to the bike?
Also is your spedo accurate cause I'm thinking of getting one soon?

All Ive added is the tach and volt meter. Other then that I adjusted the cables, brakes and changed out the fish oil that came in the bike. I havent checked the speedo with my GPS yet but it reads in MPH not KPH so lets hope its fine. Make sure any bike you get has both the EPA and DOT plates so you have no problem getting it reged for the street.

My Lifan has no tank plastic anymore, and it runs well. I figure that the plastic was acting like a sail, creating wind drag.

Did you have to tack going up wind. Sort of like "Sloop de jure"? :p

:hehe:

The truth is that I never rode the bike with the plastic; I removed the tank cover and the fake rad fins right away. Every plastic cover was broken on the bike when I bought it, even though it only had about 150 miles on it. I looked at how the tank cover was shaped to scoop air and concluded that the mighty CG would rather have free-flowing air, as Honda intended.

Yeah, if I talk myself into buying a Hawk, that hokey plastic would be the first thing to go. :zzz:

Melin, how you liking the bike? What's the comfortable cruising speed?

The bike came with a loose crown nut (?) so I havent been able to ride it much. Got a wrench yesterday so every thing is now tight. Havent been able to ride here as I only got my MCO and bill of sale yesterday. Have 44 miles on it so far. Hope to get it reged tomorrow. Cant afford to get pulled over. As for now it seems much faster then most, with out trying I got it up to 50 in forth gear. Seemed to have lots of top end left. Trying to keep it below 5000 rpm for brake in is not too easy as this bike just wants to go FAST! I really like this bike. After working on this I feel its the best China bike out there right now other then some of the pricey CSC stuff. I like how this dosent have the rear disk brake cylinder sticking way down just where its likely to get taken out by the first rock it encounters. Or the front brake line right in harms way. I like that this is a full sized bike. I think this is a really well designed bike. 11" of clearance compared to most of the other bikes 8 1/2". We will have to see how I feel after a few more hundred miles?

Sweet!

How much he fuel does that tank hold? I have a db07a and the tank only holds a gallon...

Holds a little over 2 gal.

Help!
 

I just got reged and plated. One day after I took my first real ride and when I got home this is what I found :ohno:
Does anyone know where I can get one of these? My bike is less then one month old so I contacted superiorpowersports.com the place I bought my bike for warranty. So far there after sale service has been nonexistent. Does anyone know where I can buy the brake light, tail light, blinker, license plate holder in my pic? With out it Iam out of luck. Does anyone know what kind of glue would glue this kind of plastic? The epoxy Iam trying to use doesn't seem to be holding.:ohno:

I would say two 1/8 plates,nuts,washer,bolts and epoxy,it's all out of sight.
