It lights up red. Means low in petrol or low in engine oil?

 

For TA150.

it usually means your 2T in your 2T reservoir is low... top up 2T asap to prevent piston jam...

I like TA150 than TA200.......More chrome surface, more power, hv radiator - less worry of engine overheat n it make the bike look muscular..haha.....Only thing that i dont like, he thought petrol is plain water...

 

Yes... Use $25/L 2T if u like to go far or fast, if not dont waste ur $$$$... $10 one will do...

simi brand? guess for that pricing it has to be a fully-syn right?

am using AGIP bought from unique at $19/l.

hi ppl, i do need some help.

 

New biker here and just had my first fall, now the 150 is dented on the left side of the gas tank.

May i know what r u the effects of it and how can i mend it?

Also quite strangely, the low beam stopped working but high beam still can.

[Silent Hunter]

Your bulb got 2 filaments, one for low beam, one for high beam, your low beam filament's blown already, go change the light bulb.

 

Tank dent, no effect unless dent until so bad, got crack. At most when you pump the capacity smaller by a few ml, really is nothing.

 

Tank kena dent can do a few things,

1: Go to motor shop ask them to knock back and repaint.

2: Buy new one if the tank is in bad shape.

3: Go buy a tank cover. As for where, I only know Ah Koon sells them.

[Silent Hunter]

P.S: I saw Ah Chong Scrapping 2 Phantom TA150 just now 31/10/2010. So he sure have old spare tanks for TA150.

If your tank is very very badly dent, go Planet to get if you need, sure have.

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

High beam issue - sometimes wiring problem at the switch end. (this is in my case - change new bulb also same) Change bulb first like Silent Hunter says to isolate the issue. $1.50 only! Sometimes $1 or even free with other purchase! (LAB)

Edited October 31, 2010 by Pandora's Kitten :3

[Silent Hunter]

Or if really very stingy, borrow a bulb from one of us to test first! hahaha!

Then if really bulb problem, then buy a new one or buy over the bulb from the person you borrowed from!

Hmm I realize when having a bad jam in the day... My heat meter will go untill left one bar to H.. is there a problem??

 

And also.. these past few days.. I cant kick start my bike.. like starting start up awhile.. den dies out (too cold maybe)

as usual we pull the choke.. den try starting again.. this time.. the kick start thhingy dun have much of the start feeling.. u know what i mean.. the running thing to starrt the engine.. tries a few times. den push start.. yup it works.. Den for the rest of the day it can work le.. den a few days later happens again.. getting more frequent.. den i go bike shop while its closing to change the spark plug.. i told the tech briefly.. he said might be CDI prob... which cost 200+... i havent change my spark plug coz he closing le.. so u guys think.. Could it just be my spark plug only?? or is it really the cdi prob.. what are the symtoms of cdi probs.. As my bike usually could start for awhile den dies out.. while trying to restart with choke on, it cannot get the vroom vroom thing.. yeah thx if anybody could help =) Oh yeah.. push start always works

[Guest B_E_N]

temp thing is normal.. phantom 150 get hot quite easy in jam.

i had tested one ta150...idle for half and hr....into the 3/4 mark...

mabe u need to flush radiator and top up with clean coolant..

 

clean your filter...check your petro tank for sediments/condensation.....clean or change sparkplug...

 

check your battery..maybe need to change..

 

 

cdi problem ...performance isssue and/or stalling engines..when you ride..
