V-twin clone at home depot online

sho305 · 04-14-2013, 07:11 PM

I see them, 22hp v twin lifan for $999 recoil and 1149 elec start. Splash lubrication. That is a lot more cash per HP than the singles, not sure why the few places starting to sell these have such a high price on them. Then it says 20hp in the specs lol. I can get an overpriced 18hp vanguard for that.

389cc???

the 999 one says electric start to, and like you said, it says 22HP, but if you look at the sticker on the motor in the pic, it says 20HP

Looks like my gx620

Signatures ?????? We don't need no stinking signatures !!!!!

Yeah, I think I'm going to stick to the single cylinder clones until that price comes down about $300

I wonder if the headers and other parts off of Honda vtwins will work with them? Just curious...but like you said, way off on that price!

sho305 · 04-14-2013, 09:51 PM

I figured they would be 600 or so (or at least <800). Geoff said he might be able to get them if anyone was interested.

I can get them for around $850....there isnt much profit in them though since they are still new and more manufacturers who have EPA approval on them are trying to recoup their initial EPA costs ($25,000).

My goal is to have them for $799 Shipped in about a year from now.

If there is enough interest, I will bring 5-10 of them in on my next shipment. PM me if you want to get on the list.

That price is crazy they will never sell in this economy i have a Honda gx630 for way less then that and still can't sell it and it only has 77.8hrs on it

Thats what Id figured but you have to consider it is 2x the engine of a regular clone plus it has pressurized oiling.

The home depot one says splash oiling! Not all bad but most all twins are pressure oil. Also the cc is really small so not sure it is correct specs. I think carrolstream has one too will have to look at that one. Used to be the rodin vtwin was cheap too.

geoffw · 04-16-2013, 06:29 PM

Hmmm, The one I can get is 680cc and is pressurized oiling.
