You need a 12V wiring harness, CDI box, and coil to make your engine run. The '79 Z50 is a 6V points-type ignition and the stock wiring and coil will not work with the 12V engine you have in the bike.

The parts wont interchange between the honda and lifan motor. Youll need to make your own wiring harness or get a wiring harness like the one below and modify it: eBay Motors: Lifan Trail 70 Main Wiring Harness Honda ATC 70 90 110 (item 300286726628 end time Jan-20-09 09:54:57 PST) And youll need a 12v coil. |

most lifans engines like this one come with the wiring, eBay Motors: LIFAN 125CC Motor Engine XR50 CRF50 XR 50 70 CRF70 CARB (item 330281425695 end time Jan-22-09 18:14:59 PST) ![]() see thats all that is needed, plus coil [not shown] to make it run on the wiring side. edit; apparently the coil is pictured.
