How abt changing EO? i changed mine to Motul 300 fully syn and smoothness was really good. For the next 1k at least.

 

My recent EO change to Motul 5100 semi syn still leaves my bike vibrate a lot.

bro getting better EO helps a little only. After all it's a class 2B bike. any speed higher then 80km( on ta200 meter) vibrations come in...

 

yes. whole bike will shake shake and dance cha cha ;-)

 

so for myself, i'm used to the ta200 dance step already.. =p

you want higher speed with much less vibrations, much more power, the TA150 will do the job nicely for you!

 

just too bad they don produce a 2 stroke TA200... that will be way cool for a power i can get for a 2b bike.

hi, i recently got burned by my exhaust, and today my fren got burn too cuz he refuse to believe dismounting on the right side may get burn(which he did)

 

so just wondering b4 my exhaust claims any more casualties, do phantoms have any heat guards for exhaust pipes like some of the kups have?

it is normal for a phantom 200 to backfire a little every now and then... if it is backfiring too much, it is possible that your carburetor need a bit of adjustment...

 

hmmm... phantom 200 has an air pump...? hmmm...

unless your exhaust is in a very very bad condition... it should not contribute to backfiring...
