Great Builds, here in Europe we have a few 212cc DAX guys but wa can't seem to find any exhaust that lets us use the full potential of the 212cc engine. The classic-style kitaco results in a lower acceleration then let's say a Kitaco OT. And even that has a very narrow exhaust pipe. any suggestions?
@southeastvintagecyclerescue Sir I am installing that exact exhaust as we text! If you'd I be the happy to send you a pic of my little ct 125 when I'm finished here in a bit. I've got a problem. Which end or direction of donut gasket goes into exhaust port? I don't want to put it in backwards or upside down. Wrong. Any & all advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. It's probably a common sense thing I'm sure but it looks like maybe it could possibly go either way?
Nice, I went with the K0 CHP stainless version after everyone pointed out how I had the wrong pipe. I like it, but I think yours has larger tube and outlet. I posted a video on my channel last night in fact.
Just watched your video. The CHP version looks really nice on your CT70. Definitely an accurate repro of the stock pipe. Mine is definitely a more aggressive type setup.
I saw this video a few months back, and on your recommendation, decided to order this Bart Moto pipe....So now that I have this restoration well under way, I installed the 125 Lifen and new exhaust. Looks and sounds great. BUT...Now, much to my disappointment, I find the whole stock skid plate will not fit around this pipe. Do you have any tips to make that work? I know it's not the end of the world, buy I just really like the look better with it on.
I wasn't aware that the stock skid plate didn't fit. I never tried to install one on mine. Depending on where it's interfering maybe you could use some washers/spacers where it mounts to the bottom of the engine to gain some more clearance?
@southeastvintagecyclerescue Unfortunately not that easy....the main bar hits the bottom of the "U" in the exhaust pipe...so I can't even get the bolt holes anywhere close. It can't tip up to its horizontal position, so the bolt holes are about 4 inches away.... Not much I can do.. Thanks for the reply..!!
@@markoakley4343 I think Mini Bike Mike did a video on clearancing the skid plate for the Lifan 125's. Take a look through his videos. www.youtube.com/@MiniBikeMike
That is the most tasteful CT70s I've seen. I have a CT70 K0 that I have had since I was 14. It's still in really good shape, but I would love to do everything you have done exactly. Do you have a list of all the changes and sources you could share?
Thanks I appreciate the compliments and thanks for watching. A good deal of the aftermarket parts I used can be purchased at bartmotoco.com/ The rest of the details are probably a bit much to type out on here. You're welcome to drop me an email directly with any questions you have. prwells@gmail.com
