[Guest @h_püi™]

you mean,

 

1. second gear

2. clutch in

3. press start

4. throw clutch immediately?

 

you mean push start is it?

 

1) ignition on

2) engage second or third gear with clutch in all the way

3) push your bike for a distance (but fast abit, like run while pushing)

4) throw your clutch

5) (you will notice that your bike got the engine start effect) then immediatly clutch in and rev your throttle all the way dun close your throttle (to charge the batt)

 

*above method no need to push the engine start button and is best to find a slope like MSCP when you need to push start..cos "run" while pushing the bike inorder to successfully start the motor is quite hard...

isn't #3 suppose to be push your bike? lol rxgn you gotta read the top some would add on after #4 that you open throttle abit and careful not alot cuz in that situation you open lots you'll chase your bike lol..and also clutch in after the bike is moving..push start

[jB]

btw wanna ask, i've seen many ta150, some noisy stock pipes and some quiet ones.. how'd they do it? and I did say stock lol.. maybe do the same for my ta200 then wouldn't be so noisy

[Guest @h_püi™]

if i'm not wrong our exhaust all come with a silencer. that why some ppl wanna to empty the pipe meaning take out the silencer and the noise will get louder like HD... but TP and ROV will convoy with you also... lol

[madman]

no need slope lah, phantom is so light...

 

and i not big and muscular also...bike no need to be running fast to be able to push start. i walk and push also can start.

[Metalfyre]

You martial arts expert leh...got internal strength. I must jog/run to start my phantom one. If I don't succeed in like..3 attempts...min jia lan liao...i out of breath. My tae kwon do low level la..haven't learn internal strenght like shifu madman...heh heh

[Replay]

hmm but I've seen uncles riding those 150 so I don't think they'd wanna remove silencer or they would lol.. i know about those kups and that they do..haha ehh our ta200 can put extra? so it'll be less noisy

 

no need slope lah, phantom is so light...

 

and i not big and muscular also...bike no need to be running fast to be able to push start. i walk and push also can start.

 

salute to you till I can walk and push lol..now still have to sit on bike and waddle like a duck then push start

[Replay]

[jB]

hehe never really liked noisy pipes or bikes, no offence

[Replay]

my sentiments exactly.

[Metalfyre]

Depends on the sound la...bassy is good

[Guest @h_püi™]

guys, wanna check.. what problem will cause by wheel bearing? how to know when need the change the wheel bearing.. cos recently i tent to ride to the left and hard to maintain straight..

 

dunno is the alightment or bearing. thansk

[Metalfyre]

Wheel bearings affect how smoothly your wheels rotate. If your steering is affected, it should be your steering cone and bearings there...not the wheel bearings.

I can do it easily prolly cos I push start so many times till I become sorta "expert" at it loh. My ta150 seldom used, so, battery always kenna drained out, got to push start.

[Replay]

[Metalfyre]

Hi PKs,

 

Wanna ask

 

1) when will I know if it's time to change my chain and sprocket wheel? coz I noticed that the nut to tighten my chain seems like it's been hammered towards the front to the max liao..

 

2) Which 'brand' of chain and sprocket wheel is better?

 

3) Is it better to change both at the same time?

 

4) And which workshop is good in the east side? Ah Koon there muz wait vv long.

 

 

Thanks lots!

how much to change the bearing at the steering cone?

[madman]

1) when will I know if it's time to change my chain and sprocket wheel? coz I noticed that the nut to tighten my chain seems like it's been hammered towards the front to the max liao..

 

If max liao means cannot be tightened anymore. Yes, a change is recommended.

 

2) Which 'brand' of chain and sprocket wheel is better?

 

A set of DID O-ring chain n sprocket should be sufficient for your needs.

 

3) Is it better to change both at the same time?

 

Normally, yes...most people do it that way. A sprocket hardly ever outlasts the 2nd chain even if it lasts the first. But it's not an absolute must do.

 

4) And which workshop is good in the east side? Ah Koon there muz wait vv long.

 

I=westsider...heh heh. Near the Safra there's this shop starting with 'Y' that I was pretty impressed with...

Ohh the nut is nearer to the front side of the bike.. does that mean long way to go?
