There are none.
I have a Icebear Maximus and had to convert from EFI to carb and had absolutely NOTHING to go by.
Good luck. It's just not out there.

Icebear Maximus - converting your EFI system into a carbureted system? Has anyone does this conversion and what is involved?
I spoke with Icebear directly and they said that you just eliminate the EFI, add a carb, change out the intake manifold and the coil and you should be all set. However, a VERY knowledgable dealer mentioned that a module, which is not in stock, is also needed to make this work. Just wondering which module needs replacing.
This is all to avoid the inevitable "overheating" (which is not overheating) problem that will either put the trike into limp mode or shut it down.
Another way would be to bypass the sensor altogether. Has anyone doe that?
Bottom line, how have you or your dealer fixed this problem? There are MANY on the road right now with no issues, so they were either fixed or they didn't have the problem. Looking for a solution so I can make it know to everyone.
Thanks!

Appreciate your reply.
I am working on acquiring the parts to do the conversion from EFI to carb.
I spoke with Icebear and she told me what I needed, however, a very knowledgeable dealer told me that I need to update the module. Not sure if he meant the EFI module or the CDI. He also mentioned that there are none in stock at Icebear. I am currently waiting for his reply to clarify.

This is a new trike.
I heard from Icebear that when the fan turns on, indicated with a red light on the dash board, it throws a code to the EFI that basically puts the engine in a limp mode. The way to fix is to get rid of the EFI (and the worthless computer inside the EFI) and covert it to a carb. engine.

Need some help with the Icebear Maximus/Tornado/Magnum, etc overheating.
Many have had this problem. In fact, I am learning that this is the reason they were discontinued.
My question is, HOW DID YOU FIX IT? Water pump, burping, thermostat... what did it take to completely fix the issue.
I am mechanically inclined and will give the repair a shot. I would rather not guess what the problem is.
Many thanks!

I have a 2020 Trike made by Geely.
Finding parts has been interesting.

I have spent the last several hours reading posts and getting some great advice. But now, this "newbie" has some questions.
The other day, I picked up a 2020 Geely Trike, with a 200cc GY6 engine (also called the: Saber 200, Jasscol Saber 200, Kandi Spyder 200, Amigo Dragster 200, amongst other names, I am sure).
It is in beautiful condition except for the clutch is bad. It seems rather straight forward to replace the clutch with a new clutch kit. Finding one, that for-sure matches, seems a bit tricky.
My engine code is 1P63QML, or 163QML, as I am learning.
First question:
Does the engine code have anything to do with the clutch kit size?
What is the best way to find the clutch kit for this trike?
Any advice would be welcomed and appreciated.
Scott
