These guys are awesome to deal with. Customer service is top notch and communication is gold. I ordered this motor a few weeks ago and installed into my SSR125. Plug and Play! Started 2nd kick and after properly breaking in the motor, it rips!
I stumbled across this video while looking for some upgrades for my girls little 125cc (120cc actual) ATV. I don't even have a pit bike, but want this motor! I don't think my 8 year old daughter would appreciate losing her electric start, reverse, and automatic on her little Midsize quad though.. But Daddy would have a blast! 🤘😂 New subscriber. Thanks for the video, I liked it and the presentation and knowledge is great.. I like all things with motors, and making them better and faster....We will get along. haha 👍 Take care y'all
I was ready to purchase a 125 Lifen engine for my Honda CT70 until I stumbled on to this channel with a Piranha 140 engine and the upgraded parts. Hope they have them in stock when I purchase.
Awesome vid guys still the most reliable engine I’ve ever used in the past never missed a beat literally put it thru hell my cousin done the same never even replace the factory oil :( but still lasted for years of punishment Please do a vid of the 146 and z40 upgrade and the power difference they make
epic i found your guys channel ive been ordering parts from you guys for yeaRS iam saving up for a 190 motor for my tao tao hellcat 125 i blew out the shift point cant get it out of gear and when i order the bike it came with a oil leek so new motor save up time epic video !
I believe I have bought 3 engines from you guys. Your awesome. I stayed away from a 140CC motor because my understanding is you having to have a oil cooler. Also I thought a 140CC motor is a bit longer and the motor could rub the front fender. Next motor I buy will be from you guys.
I have a 2012 pirahna with a yx140 engine. I race it quite a bit and run it hard everytime I ride it and she starts up without a problem everytime. I’ve recommended piranha bikes to tons of my buddy’s and recently sold my 12 because I purchased a 18 with the 12&14”wheels. One thing I noticed is my 12 had the oil cooler on it. Wondering if this is a good option for these newer bikes or do you think it’s not necessary?
I love this video, I have a honda cub 90cc, and I'm interested in getting one of these 140cc engine with the full setup that's why you're in and everything, I would like to make contact with you guys.
My friend got one for his ssr 110. He let a friend of his ride it because he said he could. Well turns out he couldn't it was pinned in 1st gear hitting rev limiter for 15-20 secs and it still runs great to this day. Awesome engine.
I installed a 34mm carb on mine. took 2 years to tune it properly but it is a rocket now. Ive had to weld the kickstarter 3 times, but its fine now. I keep 2 cdi boxes side by side just in case I need em. The electrical , I use a full wave rectifier with a massive 2 farad capacitor running 24vdc. Led lights are the only thing that'll run that voltage. I welded a long steel bar with a small weight at the end over the rear wheel to eliminate that vibration at high rpm, wasn't intentional but it worked.
EDIT: Sorry we were idiots and figured out the major issue on forums. Turns out Lifan motors require people to buy an oil cooler and we didnt get one nor be told we needed one. Motor still runs but we put assembly lube in there for now. We are going to get a new head and get an oil cooler. Sorry for the waste of time. Hey, im back with a more serious question. I got my motor and the clutch is better but we opened the cam area up to adjust the valves. We did them and the exhaust valve was really loose. We got that done and we opened cam cover and it was BONE dry. We looked at the cam and it was so dry it was grinded down atleast a millimeter. We are thinking it was the oil pump??? Please give us your opinion on what happend.
Wish you guys to do a video on that same motor for 140 piranha but show us how to hook up our lights and make sure battery stays charged. That’s a huge problem with these engines
I do not have the ground connection to connect to frame I have the plug ins from the stator. Should I just plug in the ground from the stator and cdi together or bolt them to frame?
So what are the benfits with the trc ez-start performance cdi exactly? I know u said kickback but is there any other way to correct that or only the cdi box?
I bought two Piranha 125cc engines from Tbolt for my 1991 and 1992 ct70s. Very similar to the 140cc engines. If you are installing these on a 91 thru 94 CT70, the cool thing is that the stock stator plate from the original 72cc engine is interchangeable with that stator plate for the Piranha engine. Swap the stator plates and it becomes plug and play, no need to modify the wiring. Im running mine with all the stock Honda electronics with no issues. There is no lead for the neutral light though. This was for the 125cc piranha, I believe its the same for the 140cc ruclips.net/video/jGlQKS11C3U/видео.html

Mass layoffs + Stimulus Checks = sold out engines I'm positive that we will get more piranha 140s in the future. but within a few months and entire years worth of engine sold out. The supply chains were never ready for this.
Hey Scott, the oil is added at the factory, and it's mainly just for the quick test run at the factory. It should be about 950ml or so, but might vary. We definitely recommend draining it and adding 950ml 10w40 Non-Synthetic. It's worthwhile to check with the dipstick as you add, but in reality if you overfill it, it should blow out the overflow. -jr
you dont have a prob on a honda 50,,,with the head of the motor hitting the front tire?,,i have a lafin 140 and its verry close to the front tire on my bike
We've had tons of guys put the piranha 140 in an XR70. many of them use the stock exhaust and then get it aftermarket pipe a couple months later. The stock pipe keeps it a lot quieter but an aftermarket pipe definitely improves performance
my 140 ran great for about year and a half. now it starts for about 3 seconds and dies and wont start again but will just repeat exactly the same thing and flood itself.. any ideas?
Hey, got a serious question and i hope you guys can answer it. I Recently bought a Lifan 140 (im hoping they are similar) And when we got it in we realized the clutch is EXTREMELY hard, if you got any answers let me know immediately!
First thoughts are it might need some break time to let the plates get lubed up better. I'd suggest emailing contact@tboltusa.com dad might have a better idea. -jr
@@TBoltUSA Yeah, i figured. We got the engine into our quad and we pulled the clutch in and we were confused. I Rode it around and broke it in, the clutch felt a little better but we will see. Thanks!
solid engine the yx140 but bare in mind they can be a bitch to start even set up right don't just kick it make sure to go past the tdc before trying to kick they will strip kick start gears otherwise
@@NasdaqManiac I swapped the 140 in and it went in just fine. The only issue I had was the petcock for the gas tank is right where the carb sits. I had to get creative and extend the manifold a bit to push the carb rearward of the petcock. other than that, it was a super easy swap.
I had a question I'm making a go kart and I was thinking about useing a Piranha 140cc 4 speed. I'm not trying to race just somthing to have fun on for not super expensive. Is this a good little engine? I'm 200lb will it be strong enough to push me
That engine is around 11 whp a stock gokart is around 7-9hp hp to the crank and had no transmission. The piranha 140cc is about twice de Power and you Gotta have 4 speed. Its gonna rip
@@MACKTOP it's crazy that you just sent me this reply because I'm seriously debating on ordering this engine right now as I'm typing this. It's in the shopping kart

You do not need to run an oil cooler on Piranha 140cc

They dont have a rev limiter afaik thats valve bounce.

Do you have a video on how to wire up lights for a 140 piranha?

I keep 2 cdi boxes side by side just in case I need em. The electrical , I use a full wave rectifier with a massive 2 farad capacitor running 24vdc.

Looking to put one of these in a 1980 Honda C70. Will it fit without modification? The bike is 6v but I plan on completely rewiring.
i hope your both still alive great video

This will fit in Apollo 125cc from no problem no modifications?
Second question. I have a cr125 mount on my kart will this fit?
Dear Team
Have you tried a 26mm Nibbi carburetor on a 140cc?
I have an SSR SR110. I know this engine will fit my bike, but I’m curious if my pro circuit T4 will bolt up?
Hey are you guys based out fo Portland, oregon?
Could this fit on a taotao dbx1 and if so, how would I do that?
My Lifan style 125 is shot and TBoltUSA isn't shipping Piranha 140's to Canada now because of COVID? 😩😩😩 My poor CT70 needs love!!!
Do you have any videos on the pitster pro 140cc semi auto ??
can you guys do a install video that would be sick!
We have a basic engine install video: ruclips.net/video/D4kq2X35hDg/видео.html

Does it fit into YCF 125 2013
where do you find the tank spacers at? i want to put one of these motors in my xr50
🫡
will it fit in a jr 50
Could i put one of these on a honda z50?
add on can you get it in semi automatic?
Will you get anymore of these or have they been replaced by the electric start version? I noticed they are sold out on your site
Mass layoffs + Stimulus Checks = sold out engines
I'm positive that we will get more piranha 140s in the future. but within a few months and entire years worth of engine sold out. The supply chains were never ready for this.
Does the dial.adjust the rev?
Anyone running a v2 head on this motor? I bet it would be ridiculous on a crf50
will it fit 77" kawasaki kd 80frame?
