pirana 0 #1 November 5, 2007 Anybody up on the topic of hot little mini-bikes, pit bikes, etc? I'm trying to find information on the quality of the various engines available. Here's the skinny: I got a couple go-karts imported from a Chinese company. Great little machines, piece of junk engine. The engine is a reverse engineered knock off of a Honda 110 (the kind with the horizontal jug). The engines are now shot. They are not even worth repairing - I need to replace them. I've come across several companies selling them on the net, and I've been told some are good, others are just the same knock-off junk (lousy materials, poor workmanship). The names I've come across on the web are Lifam and NICE. Lifam appears to be made in Thailand. NICE appears to be a juiced up high performance version that for some strange reason is mostly coming up on UK websites. Anybody up on this stuff, or by any chance have experience with these engines in particular? Any info on it is much appreciated." . . . the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience." -- Aldous Huxley Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
