Hi mrnoman, from my experience .....

 

Phantom ta200 is a steady bike with gears and clutch. its heavy thus giving a very good stability of the bike and carrying pillion, on the same level with u, is not a problem as pillion would not bumpy.

 

For Dink 150, its an auto scooter which can pick up to 80-100km/h very fast, if u on throttle more than half, and travels quite fast. For pillion riding, the pillion is seated slightly higher and some pillions do not feel safe for themselves.

 

Both bike has its own world of pros and cons, so u gotta test the bike and find the suitable one for ur riding style ......

I was choosing between this 2 bike 1 week ago. Tested both bike, decided to get scooter.

I agree with Darsha, you need to test the bike to know which one suit you.

Actually it depends on your needs. I choose Grand dink few years back because of its big storage compartment, I manage to put my CPU on the front slot to sent it for repair. Like the electric mirror too.

Fuel consumption is around 30km/L, cruising at 80kph.

Becareful what you choose... if I were you.. I go with the phantom as scooter requires much more money to maintain like belt etc.....check out how much is to overhaul a scooter and how much to overhaul a phantom... anyway good luck....

Agreed...I brought a grand dink 250 cheap and spend the next 3 weeks doing the bike almost more than 50% of the value...I would go for phantom if I want it cheap and good....
