Title: I need lifan 125 gy-3 manual pdf please
Post by: danjoel86 on May 25, 2011, 05:52:45 AM
hi all. im dan. im new to this site. i live in stoke on trent and have the above bike as a learner. i know its not the best but it does me. well it did. After replacing my clutch i now have another problem. My bike sounds ridiculously loud and i may have lost power or it may be that because its so loud i daren't pull the throttle. A friend thinks it may be something with the piston as it sounds like its coming from there he reckons.

i have the exact same engine in the shed. as a newbie would i be ok to do the job myself. eg. strip the engine and fault find? im looking for a pdf manual for my bike to help me. should i attempt this? im fairly bright and i have a phone to take photo's so i know how bits go back together. what tools would i need? do i need to strip everything to get to the piston?

any advice would be very appreciated.

Hi Dan

It depends...

The Lifan GY-3 that I know of has an almost "Horizontal" engine in it. In the USA they had a 70GY-3, 90GY-3 & a 110GY-3 that are all copies of the oh so famous Honda Trail70, CT70, DAX70, DAX50.

Unless your engine is almost "Vertical", the book I posted is the one you want.
