Honda C90 Lifan engine review and Gopro mic test.

A test of the microphone set up for my GoPro and a wee look round some of the things I've done to the bike.

Good to see you've found a replacement for Winston's classic 8 mile fudbike route. 😉 Ps. I think we could hear your sound test over the crowd at Sophie's fitba tournament in Meadowmill 📢

That's the Saltoun TT I'll have you know.

The auto clutches I had a few fail on the 110 engines. I was always swapping plates/springs trying to get them to work without slipping. I have another engine in my Yellow honda 70 and it has been to wales and all over and been perfect. Just luck of the draw I guess. The 125 manual engines are probably the most robust I think. Been fording and allsorts in the past with one. I think thats what ed march mainly ran in his adventures. I would say the standard 90 engines are the best if rebuilt and balanced properly but for the money i think its worth giving a lifan a whirl

[@yodagoat]

Aye, it appears that lots of other folk have clutch issues too, it's just that the few folk who haven't shout the loudest. 😂 The Lifan is a horrible wee unit but it's cheap. I guess you get what you pay for. I'll be putting the Honda motor back in when the lifan gives up the ghost.

Got a lifan 110 4 speed manual,I've had kitaco,takegawa and my last was a honda nice 175 and I choose the lifan 110 ,awesome engine ,gears smooth and never jumped out of gear,over 3k on it now.

@@michaelbennett6550 Let me know how it goes. Everyone I've spoked to seem to either have issues from new like I have or start developing issues between 3-10k.

[@freeair7292]

Use genuine Honda plates on the lifan and you won't have any issues

Sounds sweet, the wee little cub. Love them wheels, looks smart on that.

[@yodagoat]

Cheers mate. You reckon the sound in the video was ok?

[@tojj29]

@@yodagoat A bit muffled compared to some of your other videos I think. Picked up the bike sound ok though

[@richardamner7432]

Where did you get the wheels and how much are they?

[@yodagoat]

I got them from Kepspeed on offer. I think they're usually around £160 or so. I got them for £140 odd.
