I'm sure that you could easily swap the original CT stuff into the 125 engine, and then the entire original wiring harness would work. If you wanted to use a modern CDI stator in the 125, you'd be converting the system to 12 volt, and that would require new bulbs and a new battery.

There is an adaptor available to mate the original wiring to the lifan stator. You can either convert to 12v or use a special 12v to 6v rectifier and retain all the stock bulbs.
Available at dratv.com Since mine is missing all lights and wiring is ? I will just do the full conversion to 12v.

Forgot to mention that I stripped the CT down the frame. Sorry no pics.
Concerned the the swingarm mounting area may be slightly tweaked.

I had enough acorns to fill a coffee can from the inside of the frame. Appears the squirrels liked it.

Hopefully it doesn't come to that.
![]() I've straightened lots of steel in the past with a large adjustable wrench (Crescent style) and a little heat. The benefit to the adjustable wrench is that it can tighten onto the piece and give you something to manipulate.

I don't know Derryk, Doc's untweaking device looks like more fun... Ok ok, at the cost of precision, but still... Doc, if I ever tweak my arm or some other limb or joint I hope I don't get the fun untweaking tools.

Seriously, I thought even the orthopedists only used the small hammer!

I think I can fix it. The swingarm appears to be about a 1/4" off at the chain adjusters. So I may stick one of the three swingarms in there and attempt to tweak it back into place.

The insurance only pays for the large untweaking device. 8O
I also use the adjustable wrench trick.It works well. I've not used heat also though.

I find that cold steel is more likely to crack. Not a big deal when you have a MIG, but why not heat it and avoid the issue.
