Ok, so what are the things I need to consider to put in a Lifan 125 engine on my CT70? I know that I gotta change a lot of stuff, but I don't know, this is what I really wanna happen. So, if possible, can I get more info from you?

well, sure. it's common to do that, although it's not a direct bolt in. you need mods, fabrication, electrical work, and sourcing new parts. I think you need to research more
 
My only concern is making sure the frame and suspension can handle the increased power and weight from the Lifan 125
 
To put a Lifan 125 in your CT70, you'll need to adjust stuff like engine mounts, wirings, exhaust and possibly chain and sprockets. Expect some modifications to make everything fit and work smoothly
 
Just a heads-up, those swaps aren't exactly the easiest to do. But they're definitely worth it if you're looking for that extra boost. Have you got a kit ready, or are you thinking of putting things together as you go?
