Mike, Have followed your Michigan adventure. Really great that you were able to share the trip with the kids! Had to be fun. Amazing how well the bikes and engines did. Hated that you missed Portland, had a great time. Maybe next year. Love your videos, keep 'em coming!

@@user-vm8fy9cq1u Thanks Tim. I’m not really into swap meets, so I’d pick a ride like this, over a swap meet any time. Yes, riding with my son and his friends was a blessing, loved every minute of it. It’s hard to beat the aftermarket 125cc engines, they’re pretty tough.

Looks like the S65 was and is the “shining star” and holds a special place in your heart and the bike collection. Over 8,000-miles on the “ticker” is impressive and testimony to the benefits of routine oil changes. Have you ever removed the right crankcase cover and cleaned the centrifugal oil spinner/filter and oil screen on it ??
@MiniBikeMike 16 күн бұрын
@@donsoule6411 I ran that engine for the first 1000 miles on the shipping oil, that came in the engine. I change it now about every 500 miles. No, never cleaned the filter. At this point, I’m curious to see how long it will last with almost no maintenance. 🤣

@@frankjones4094 Honda….yes. Mike….no. If the bike has a cotter pin, I reuse it. If it’s missing, I don’t worry about it. This was the first time I’ve ever had one come loose. I’m sure I had it hand tight, as I adjusted the rear wheel and chain, then forgot to tighten when I was finished.

I understand you might not want to answer, but where do you buy your Lifan engines? Sorry if you have answered this many times before, I just found your channel.
@MiniBikeMike 12 күн бұрын
@@danstowe8163 No problem at all. The 3 black Lifan 125cc semi autos were purchased from PCC Motor. You can contact them thru their website or on eBay. I found using their ebay store was just as easy. Those engines are old. I purchased them years ago, when they sold for $250 plus shipping. They’re now closer to $500. The engine in the orange CL70 is a Zongshen 125cc manual. It was a brand new engine and I picked it up on Amazon for $300 delivered.
