Im looking at a 200cc zong atv good or no?

demidestructo · 10-25-2015, 09:29 AM

Its busted up a little but it runs fantastic and it will be mine for 300.So jut wondering if it will be a good 4 wheeler do play with.

What do you mean by "busted up"? Mostly cosmetic or bent frame? It's tough to find a good parts bike for 300.00. If this is a 'driver', it's probably worth it.....but just guessing with no pics.

When I say busted up it runs and drives great with a new battery .It has shaft drive a you see .

If it runs and rides great 300 is worth it but what exactly is 'busted up'? Whats wrong with it?

I'd stay away from shaft drive. Chain is easier to replace, and easier to find.

demidestructo · 10-25-2015, 02:02 PM

I forgot to type the rest of the sentence, when i say busted up I mean that the plastic is broken. It runs and moves great I thought it would be great for going through the mud because of the shaft drive . I found a rear end or the shaft drive for it on aliexpress under zongshen atv rear gear shaft drive for 59.99 .I have never order from there maybe tao bao has one too.

Its weird though the seller says its a 220cc but everything I could find on it has said its a 200cc. Its a zongshen 200cc ,isn't that the awesome motor thats in the sierra enduro? Like spuds? What do you say Spud?

Weldangrind · 10-26-2015, 12:13 AM

Not likely. It is far more likely to be a Honda clone, like I have.

Weldangrind · 10-26-2015, 12:15 AM

Now that I look at it again, it's definitely a CG pushrod Honda clone.

demidestructo · 10-26-2015, 04:45 AM

Thanks weld so is this a good motor? I know you said you dont like that is shaft drive but other than that .I just want something to play with and sell in spring when people get there tax returns. Thats why I buy so many things that are cheap. Honestly I Try to do this every year get a bunch of broken things fix it in winter and sell in spring. I usually take a trip in January after I buy what im after.I think it will be fun in winter through those trails at the mounds in the snow sounds so fun.

Weldangrind · 10-26-2015, 10:55 AM

Yes, I think a CG Zong is a good motor. My favourite, in fact.

The Zong CG clone is what I have in my X Moto (according to the owners manual) and that motor runs great and has been bullet proof. I had no idea a China quad came with a shaft drive! Learn something new every day here....

Thanks again guys now just to choose between the two funny how two machines made by the same company a year apart can be that different.Maybe I can do some swapping around and put the 250cc(229cc) in my lifan and put the 150cc stuff in the atv .

Weldangrind · 10-27-2015, 12:38 AM

The ATV engine probably has four forward gears plus reverse. Unless you want reverse on your bike, leave it in the quad.
