Just a lil tip here for anyone interested! When you're removing the Factory Warning Stickers, if you either don't have a heat gun or some of the sticky residue gets left behind from peeling it, you can use a little bit of WD-40 to QUICKLY wipe it away with a cloth. Just be sure to thoroughly clean the area afterwards so there's no WD-40 left behind.

I just put together an X pro Templar 250. Some caveat if you’re going to put on a Nibbi carburetor buy some extra fuel line and American made stainless steel hose clamps and run your fuel line off of your Nibbi before you install it. It will save you an amount of time and frustration that’s worth every penny for the extra fuel line. I also put a navy ignition and an NGK iridium spark plug on the bike. Do this while it’s all tore down it’s very simple. when you start adding parts everything becomes more and more complex and harder to get to. With the spark plug chances are you never ever going to have to change it. If you are even think of changing the gear ratio which I did it’s so much nicer to do it on an absolutely clean bike and putting a high-quality chain on while you’re doing this I would recommend. For the rubber parts such as the bodywork A little bit of clear Vaseline as well as on the fairing bolts as well. It will keep your rubber from deteriorating just a little bit longer. If you do buy a chain do yourself a favor buy a chain breaking tool learn how to rivet the chain on and don’t use the master link type that can uncouple. Just some thoughts I tend to keep my stuff and take care of it for a long time. I hope this helps

You should have bought a Lifan KP Mini 150. Lifan bikes are really good quality. In 2006 I bought a LF20 GY 5. This is a 200 cc Lifan Dual Sport. from a local dealer. It is now 2024 and I plan on riding it again as I have every summer since I bought it. It has been like a Honda as far as reliability goes. One rear tire batteries and tune ups and valve adjustments and oil changes. Just a great bike. Lifan has a great reputation. Oh well good luck.

My /2006 Lifan LF 200 GY5 is running just fine in 2024 with only oil changes, valve adjustments, tires, and batteries. nothing else. No loose bolts no broken bolts.no electrical problems. Nothing but riding pleasure. Lifan is a happy medium between his cheap bike and a Honda. I would buy another in a heartbeat. Buy the way it was bought from a local dealer who also sold Yamaha. 1650.00 OTD.

With these China bikes, you have to be willing to troubleshoot and tinker a bit, as that is where your cost savings are. If that is no good, then spend real money and buy a Grom. Lots of people are learning to wrench or look up troubleshooting videos and broadening their wrenching skills with these bikes. I don't see too many people complaining about quality as much as they are happy to have some reasonable, cheap riding. Ya sometimes the details are missed on the china bikes, but parts are available and people are working ways around the issues, still at huge cost savings over established brands.

Just to let you know they did change the name but that's because they got rid of the condor for legal purposes they also change the company which they hold the license under but kept the X pro.

How does this compare to a Grom/Z125, if you want to ride like a hooligan and do some off-roading that Honda Groms are capable of? If you put it together correctly, loctite and grease everything, do all the upgrades that make sense, off-road tires, better hardware, etc... is there any aftermarket exhaust and any suspension upgrades available? Can this bike be hooligan-capable and constantly bang off the rev limiter without big issues?
@Slane583Ай бұрын
There's another YT'r I watch who has the RPS Condor version of this bike and he eventually swapped out the 150 for a "250" (230) from a Hawk 250 he got from someone he knows. He got rid of the road tires and put on small dirt bike knobby tires and he's taken it on some rough stuff for a small bike. The engine in this bike is push-rod based so it rev's lower and makes better torque than what the GROM has in it. The GROM's engine is OHC and is better with making higher rpm's.
