Hey max I'm back!

 

Rmb few months back I had this prob with my sym.

 

Check to see if your coolant level is dropping very fast. My prob was that the top cylinder block gasket was leaking. And my engine case which had the metal coolant pipes had rusted and had holes in it.

 

I changed the whole engine case and overhauled with New piston, block and of course gaskets. My piston was quite badly damaged most likely by the previous owner. So I decided to overhaul. You might wanna check along these lines. I have a feeling might be ur top gasket leaking.

Danial, your temp riding how? 1st i encounter when riding to Gelang patah when speeding at near13okm/h till smoke coming out at coolent reserve bottle.. after poured water in and rode, it spilled out brown colour water...and temp goes up at 4bar... when to flush the rad and temp ok for couple of days only and shoot up at 4 bar again..but recently my temp goes up at 4 bar and and down at 2 bar last 2 days and today it seems like ok as temp stayed at 2 bar ..

[ah786786]

Max,yes its harder to start sometimes engine will sputter.After everything mine starts with no bar after a while riding always 1 bar,so far never appear 2 bar.

If planning to overhaul its cheaper in jb dealers or alternatively find a set here from a scrap gts.

 

MIne same thing smoke came out from coolant bottle,try pang scooters at bukit merah the mech there quite gd with trouble shooting+tuning.

 

Got ask taihin,why this happen?

Bought a gts200 on thurs afternoon from de xing, price at $2500 with COE ending at 2018. Paint work was not fantastic cos its white and there are some stickers. But the price i am paying for was included a paint job and colour of my choice. Was told that they will do a overhaul before handing the bike over. Will lets see how it goes on the day of collection, if not happy with it just take back my $100 deposit.

[MIGHTY MAX]

[ah786786]

If any1 interested in 2005 gts 200 in very gd condition let me noe thru PM,my neighbour is selling his bike,gts 200 is his spare bike thus not used freqly thus collecting dust.

i just bought a gts and as i have work during the day, i only managed to view the bike in the evening/at night and i didnt notice that the exhaust pipe has some portions that have rust only until when i washed the bike today.

 

can any old birds please advise me is it possible to remove the rusting? if not, how much would a new exhaust pipe cost.

 

thanks alot!

Hi guys,

 

sorry to keep asking questions...really noob at scooters (but if u ask me about naked bikes i can ans particularly everything);

 

1. my 1st servicing is reaching soon..got free labour charges at Mah motor, heard many bad reviews bout Mah after sales service. but lan lan still under warranty...would like to ask..wat kinda a engine oil should I ask for? dun want later they chop carrot ask me to buy the more than needed quality

 

2. when i start off my engine in the morning or after a very long parking (when "heating it up) - hopefully it is a correct term to use. the idling seems to fluctuates between 1k to 2k rpm.. is tat normal? after 2-3 mins it returns to contants 1.75k rpm.

 

3. i read the manual, there is a fog light indicator? how do i switch on the fog light? is it the switch in the center between "off" and " low beam", when the round LED light is on?. coz tested every switch. n the fog light indicator is nver "on".

 

really sorry for a lot of question. really noob at hi tech scooter..last time rode a naked bike..just on, and ride..

 

TIA.
