hi fellow atlantic owners, when i start my bike after leaving it for a day, it will take at least two cranks to start. if i leave it for a week, it will take about six. is that normal? or should i have the auto choke checked?

 

other than that, i seem to get 25-26 km a litre. that seems low even if i move off in a gradual manner. any ideas? thanks.

This "starting" issue does happens but it's norm. When I didn't use the scooter for a day, the third day will require at least two try to fire up the engine.

 

For a longer period of unuse (make sure you disconnect your battery), if the engine doesn't fire on the first try - don't go on cranking, your battery will die. Off the engine, open throttle for roughly 5 sec, rest for a couple more, then try starting the engine, immediately maintain light acceleration once the engine fire up, just to keep it running for a little while, this should work.

 

I got 30-32 km/l. Check your tire pressure or maybe because I'm feather weight

Hi all,

when to test drive a atlantic today... enjine and appearance look nice. But over my budget... 2 yrs bike , he selling at $5.6k lowest.

Saw an ad at yahoo classified , during April, another guy was asking only $4.5k. same 2 yrs bike.

So sad... you guys think worth buying at $5.6k?

[knightrider]

Ya.. Agreed wit rebo.... The Longest rest for my bike is about 1 Week Plus. Need a few crank to start. I 'll stop after 2nd attempt then twist throttle & start again.. No prob...

 

My FC is about 30~31l/km

:cheer:

read thru pg1-48, gave me a rough idea on how Atlantic200 performs compared to X9.

 

thinking to get an Atlantic200

 

have a few queries on mind to seek Atlantic200's owners help

 

1.) Besides Mah to service Atlantic200, where else is there a reptuable motordiam that is capable of servicing Atlantic200?

 

2.) What is the appetite of a Atlantic200 like?

every 3000 - change engine oil -> roughly $20 per bottle full synch?

every 12000 - change belt -> roughly $150?

any other stuff to add on?

 

X merry

bro, according to our handbook.....to answer ur 2nd qns.

 

After runnin in :

Check EO every 3k & change when necessary.

Every 6K EO to be replace.

( I change every 4-5k. some bro change much frequent)

 

Each EO cost less than 10 bux (me usin SPC). Normal replacement is 1 bottle if oil filter not changin.

Wishing all Atlantic riders :::: MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!

hi friends, merry Christmas!

 

thanks for your help. i think i must not be applying this off-the-engine and twist-the-throttle technique right. once i can get to the part when i can accelerate, that's when it will fire up and run, but i failed to get it to this stage on the second crank after a few days of inactivity.

 

any idea what's the theory behind this trick? does fuel pour into the engine when you open the throttle even when you've switched it off?

[knightrider]

Did any1 of u guys buy any season parking all this while???wats e best way to siam... hahahahah.........

 

:cheer:

[Rebo]

Park it in your house or sell your bike away.

[knightrider]

[wallace996]

[knightrider]
