Default Falcon 250 Engine type?

I read through almost all of chats regarding the falcon 250 and But I am still not sure what engine it is, is a GY6 engine or not. Beacuse when I search the web for a GY6 engine everyone says it is 150cc engine not 250cc. So if its not a GY6 engine then what is it?

Can any one help me?

I don't know if it's the GY6 or not , but all the china made quad's are copies of the japan made big 4 manufacturer's ; just resently yamaha filed a law suiit again't one of the china quad manufacturer's for copy right infrignment ! It was the Moto China made bike that Yamaha sued for their claim it was a Yamaha clone of the "Rapter" ATV ! I think the GY6 engine's are said to be a Honda clone , but in fact they are just copies of Japanese engine design ; Yamaha's defense for the law suit is the poor material's and workmanship of these China made ATV's damage's their image and a copy right infrignment yamaha hold's on the" Rapter" name ! williebee

Interesting piece of Info, I will have to keep an eye on that to see how it plays out. I don't think anyone would ever confuse a Raptor want-be with the real thing and I have one. It performance is a far cry from the Raptor, that why I am trying to figure out which engine is in it.

I believe you are right it is a clone of a Honda I'm just not sure which engine, but like said the GY6 is only a 150cc not 250cc

Any more help out there?

GY6 engines are 125 and 150 honda clones, the falcon 250 uses the 1988-89 honda CN250 clone. you can order parts from bikebandit from the web.

they come with 21gr weights, you'd wanta change them out to eaither 14 or 15grs. i recommed buying dr pully sliders, they last longer and improves both the bottom and top end, if you install lighter rollers it'd improve bottom end performance but will lose a little top end speed,you can look at them at awesome buggies.com.

I went to Bikebandits but had trouble finding anything I need. Do you another place I can get these rollers. I could also so help on how to install them.
