[Technical] Queries for TA200

[matthias76]

The lower the speed, the lower the error. I think accuracy wise is up to 100.

how hard do you all pump your tires? mine is 210 front and back.

 

Any fishtailing at your tire pressures?

[matthias76]

I use a tire cap with indicator (green - ok, yellow - pump, red - danger)

[naim]

Careful with those indicator. Ever read online whr they are prone to leaks. And nt accurate

[matthias76]

I usually pump air once I notice the change in handling, I.e. steering becoming heavy. I do a visual check daily also before moving off. As an insurance, my tires are filled with the anti puncture compound.

I Pump usually once a week.. almost always drop from 220 to 190+ as i pillion alot.. thats for my front tyre.. my back tyre is at 280 when i bought it.. i didnt notice so i got rather used to this air pressure.. i dont pump it and it fell to 270 recently.. i didnt increase it back to 280 either..

Any idea what is the sound of a like metal clinging whilst cruising around 80-90km/h?

[matthias76]

too many things can cling when travelling, even the side covers when not tightened properly gives a clinging sound, keys, meter housing without rubber shoes, mirrors, eagle footrest, exhaust header not tighten properly etc etc.

theres a pump behind the headlight under the front of the fuel tank. what is that? an air pump or fuel pump? what is its purpose?

[sawfly]

some questions to ask:

1. any one know how the IU is supposed to be connected on the TA200? my is shorted directly to the starter relay directly so the IU is *always* on so i dunno if this is correct - was like this since i got my bike 2 years back.

 

2. having problems starting lately due to low voltage (12.3v, jumps to 11.7 when i start cranking); this only happens after i leave the bike there like 12 hours and the motor starts well if i crank anytime after riding. checked with voltmeter and the rectifier is charging (14.5v at 6k rpm) so doesnt look like a charging issue.

 

replaced my battery last Oct and the battery doesnt seem to hold charge. anyone has an inkling where there be electrical drain could be after ignition off or why in the world the batt would last that short; or the batt not supposed to last that long?

[ber]

Hi sawfly,

 

my iu is connected such that it is on even when the bike is off. I got the bike like this.

 

anti theft alarm do drain a bit but I think could be batt, you probably got a lemon.

[matthias76]

Battery life range 2 to 3 years. My IU is always on too. Whst headlight are you using?

Use a multimeter and measure the current leak between the battery negative terminal and bike negative cable. There is a limit. Cant rmb hw much. Can google for a rough number. If very high, u probably have some device or wire thats shorting or draining.

this pdf says 50mA. http://www.electrexworld.co.uk/acatalog/Troubleshooting-3P-PMG-&-RR.pdf

 

thanks for the tip! nvr considered the leak current test until you mentioned. i'll have a go at it tml when free cos the seat is a pain to get off.

Turned out to be not an electrical problem but a mechanical one.. starter clutch spoilt..

You mean your clutch switch?

[sawfly]

Nope it's the starter clutch that is mechanically coupled to the crankshaft . It's an overrunning clutch and the roller bearing surfaces gone already.

What's the repair cost like?

 

I just recently ordered a ceramixer (EO oil additive) from the internet. Supposed to restore a ceramic-metal bonded surface to anywhere the EO goes. I just completed the 100km run-in.

 

I won't know the effect on FC until this tank of fuel runs out, but I did notice that the engine now runs at a slightly different pitch as compared to without the additive previously. Engine power wise, can't really tell for now, as the entire process takes about 1000km for complete run in.

 

Look up Ceramizer in google and see for yourself what it says.
