Ok dudes, so here is what I got from O'Reilly Auto Parts today to do my oil and spark plug. Using the oilfilter-crossreference website:
1. WIX 24944 Oil Filter 2. NGK CPR7EA-9 Installed the Wix and used the screws torque down the cover. I am sure the rubber piece on the cap is supposed to snap into the filter. Could not do it by hand, but cranking it down worked. The Wix was the same size and I have no leaks and comes with a new gasket. People been talking about the NGK CPR8EA-9, but Autozone and Oreilly doesn't carry them and they are special order so I used the CPR7EA-9. We went through and compared both and they are identical dimensions. Heat rating is different... but you wont have to wait 3 days. After oil change and installation the bike feels like a whole new beast. Smooth and responsive. I would almost recommend doing the plug as soon as you get the bike. Stay safe. |
Oh, if you guys need to make the bike a bit louder take a drill bit and put a hole or several holes in the pipe from the downside up just before the pipe is welded to the muffler. Poor mans exhaust, but it works. Just do it low side upward best you can to keep water out.
I mean... we are all waiting for that Lifan exhaust to be back in stock anyways... right?! Start small. The bigger the hole the bigger the sound. You will lose MPG though. |
All of the oil filters that will work for the LIFAN KPM 200. As always, double, triple check.

Anyone found a good bag solution? I know there are some for the KPM on Yoycart but I'm gonna pass on those.
|
Is there any way to move the gauge cluster to the handlebars? That's a really poor design decision to put it on the gas tank, so far below your field of vision.
If you can't move it, maybe it can be disconnected and an aftermarket gauge cluster can be used? |
Unfortunately, it can't be moved. To account for speed, I just use my phones GPS. A universal cluster could be used, but you'd have to extend the wires and make a bracket to hold the cluster.
|
I found a guy who is producing exhausts Since it seems like neither Lifan nor KPMoto are going to restart production this may be a good option. Don't know anything else about it though.

Nice. Those like a lot like the KPT200 exhausts.
|
Does anyone know of a clip on adapter plate that fits the KPM 200?

FYI:
I can confirm the CR8EIX spark plug works as it should on the KPM200, its just NGK's iridium version of the stock plug that comes with the bike so no surprise. I am still breaking the bike in (<200 miles) so I cannot attribute any noticeable improvement. I thought Id stick the original plug back in one day after I have 1k or more on the clock and see if there is a difference. Has anyone confirmed a decent set of upgraded levers that fit, not just shiny anodized but actually nice quality brake and clutch levers? |

Received the exhast from "Lifan Powered Store" and it's as good as I had hoped for! the new exhaust with the muffler weighed in under 5lb and has a 35mm diam header pipe where the stock was 11lbs and 28mm!
I just used an app for contrast as they are not accurate but unbaffled it is a LOT louder. I'm probably going to either baffle this muffler or swap it but that might be hard to do as it sounds incredible. |
how has the power band been affected with the exhaust?
|
I'd like to know how loud it is with the baffle installed, if you decide to do that.

Well I did in fact do that, bought this baffle from Amazon so it would arrive next day because the straight-thru really was too loud for me (seemed louder than my ZX-7 with a Micron). With this baffle in it toned it down signifigantly at idle/rev and I think I'll be happy with this setup. |

You are correct in that these come from the same manufacturer that makes the KPT Pipes! That's how I found em :) I had them(HOTMoto Store on Alibaba) produce more optimized midpipe dimensions that fits a little better than the KPT's and had them rework the tolerances on the header bracket so it fits better.. I'm working on the whole washer-shimming thing still. It's stamped sheet metal so I don't have much control over thickness but hopefully I can get them to increase the collar length for better fitment :) |
Has anyone replaced the oilf filter cap yet? Was doing a oil change and was wondering what cap fits it
|
Quote:
Why do you want to replace said piece? It's a rather overlooked part, unless you're planning on doing some motorsport that requires something to be safety wired. So far, nothing has been looked for, as far as I know. |

When I went to do a oil change, one of the ears broke off the filter cap. |

The one you mentioned isn't on that list Edit: I went to the actual cross reference, and saw it on the list. I'm sorry I got that wrong. Interesting that it seems bigger than the rest. I'm using the K&N filter, and didn't have any problems. The fram filter and the K&N are pretty much mirrors of the factory metal filter. Did you change the O-ring, also? I never changed the original o-ring. That may be the difference. |
I got the WIX 24994 as well and changed the o-ring, I didn't break anything but the oring being too large sheered off and kind of smeared itself between the end of the filter housing and the recess its supposed to stay in so it started leaking, I put the original o ring back in and have been fine. The filter itself appears to be a proper size, just not the wix oring. It was also way harder to get on and did not "pop" into place like the original does

At 4300 miles now. Did a new chain and sprockets. Factory 16t front sprocket, and 45t rear sprocket I bought from Chinahao.com. It came with an o-ring chain that I did not decide to use. Instead, I used a Turner Performance regular 428 chain. (Gold, of course. Lol). Went ahead and did an oil change, greased the rear Axel, inspected the cush drive, and looked at my rear tire. I was gonna bleed the rear brake, so I could get better feel out of it, and adjust the valves, but I had to hurry and get to my nieces birthday party. Anyway, at 4300 miles, the rear tire is doing okay. Straight roads out here have the rear tire pretty squared off. But, it's holding up well. It'll probably make it the typical 6k miles. I have the S20s on standby, and I can finally mount the tires myself. Anyway, with the 45t sprocket, 1st and 2nd gear are far more usable. I can still hit 60 by 4th gear, but it takes a lot longer to get there. 5th and 6th barely have power to maintain 60, and I drop to about 57-58. If I was lighter than the nearly 260lbs that I am, I'm sure this bike could maintain 70 comfortably. I'll try and adjust the valves and check for power gains |
Silly question. I'm still in assembly stages. In the bag of parts, there are 2 rubber strips and can act like zip ties. Where do they go ? I didn't see them mentioned in the few pages as the assembly manual, or the online assembly video.
And I'm assuming the steel gasket is just a spare exhaust manifold gasket, not that it was left out at the factory ? |
One is for your battery, and one is for the non existent tool kit.
|
So whats the best oil for the KPM200? Link please
|
The oil is completely up to whatever your preference is. I use Castrol in all my vehicles, except my Yamaha.

alright so I got the KPM and been keeping it between first, and third gear around the block while i wait for registration... day 3 im noticing a squeaking noise coming from the front wheel area of the bike... I'm thinking it has something to do with the breaks but im as qualified as a bucket of bolts. Once i get it registered im going to take it to the local bike shop for an inspection. should i just wait, or anybody else have this issue?
