Phantom 150 vs Phantom 200
-
icic, FQ is the 1st batch of TA150? so its approx 5 years, would it have a lot of problems?Originally posted by acoolboy7:depends on what u want. u want better pick up and top end take sticker. if u want looks, then take chrome. now fq should be around 3k or lower. sticker phantom is without power cut which is a lot of power cut. the difference in power is great. -
depends. have to see previous owners. i riding fq plate. so far no problem. bad point is drink more petrol. full tank travel around 180 km only. anyway it's 4 yrs only.Originally posted by stylomilo:icic, FQ is the 1st batch of TA150? so its approx 5 years, would it have a lot of problems? -
i just made a deal over the internet for a second hand FRxxx Phantom 150 for 3k with a Non-Fango box . Very nice no problems. Still looks very new.

2 Strokes engine tend to have higher wear and tear as it is running at higher RPM.
Make sure to use the right gear to drag (not exceed the RPM), else engine will become noisy easily......
Even heard a Phantom 150 engine noisy like my 24 years old LC kia....

sounds like a good deal... wad colour izzit? the phantom logo is sticker or metal one?Originally posted by mym1wap:i just made a deal over the internet for a second hand FRxxx Phantom 150 for 3k with a Non-Fango box . Very nice no problems. Still looks very new. -
so chia lat? i read that ta150 full tank can go 250-270? yr bike got mod izzit? or izzit the older the bike, the worse the fuel consumption?Originally posted by acoolboy7:depends. have to see previous owners. i riding fq plate. so far no problem. bad point is drink more petrol. full tank travel around 180 km only. anyway it's 4 yrs only. -
i was wondering if i could get a new engine and change it?Originally posted by LaoCheh:2 Strokes engine tend to have higher wear and tear as it is running at higher RPM.

hi,i riding phamtom 150,for ur infomation,for wat i know is phamtom 150 fuel comsumption is 20km per litre,as for phamtom is 35km per litre.i got a fren ride phamtom 200 can reach 400km + reserve.top speed can reach 140km/h
-
Based my record so far, my TA200 can have fuel comsumption 47KM per litre.
Just caculate the full tank (including reserve) :
11 Litre x 47 = 517 KM
Speed ? Half throttle can reach 110KM/h. Never try max speed yet.... -
scary leh to ride till the tank till almost dry to top up. me go till 300++ have to on the reserve liao. then will top up at the nearest kiosk. pump with v power, it cost me about 13 bucks. used to be 10+ dont know why is there such a big jump.Originally posted by LaoCheh:Based my record so far, my TA200 can have fuel comsumption 47KM per litre.

phantom got no tank gauge leh. if i try 400km then dry up how??

err.. Maybe U can try interpolate or by ratio out...(Basic Math)Originally posted by chong chong:scary leh to ride till the tank till almost dry to top up. me go till 300++ have to on the reserve liao. then will top up at the nearest kiosk. pump with v power, it cost me about 13 bucks. used to be 10+ dont know why is there such a big jump.

Then U need not risk drying out the tank...
By the way.. I got a friend who ride a Dealim Magma which is a 4 stroke too. He said that V-power is not good for 4 stroke and it also tend to finish faster as compared to Esso 8000.
Well.. I tried once and indeed, it is very fuel consuming.. Have been using Esso 8000 since then.. -
wah u sure can run 517km bo?Originally posted by LaoCheh:Based my record so far, my TA200 can have fuel comsumption 47KM per litre.

Strange things had happened....
me will usually use the fuel till reserve tank is needed (normally 300km). how ever, my petrol price start to shoot up from 10 plus to 13 plus!! everything the same, 300km need to turn to reserve..
What had happen??? how to justify the increase in price?? dont think there's a increase in the price of petrol recently... if use more petrol why the distance and usage are the same?? things like size of tank shouldnt varies rite... really puzzle...
BTW fuel tank for phantom 200 is 11.2litres. -
its time to change ur spark plug or engine oil
?

actually you save some petrol if you don't drag your gears too often.. althought not that much.. but helps in long term usage..Originally posted by chong chong:Strange things had happened....

never drag my gear loh... hate to hear the stress sound from my babe... still got 1000km more to change the plugs and oil... so guess not that problem...Originally posted by eric_jugonz:actually you save some petrol if you don't drag your gears too often.. althought not that much.. but helps in long term usage.. -
517km is based on avarage 47KM/L ..... Full tank can last for about 350-370KM...Originally posted by FT512L:wah u sure can run 517km bo?
wat speed do u go at normally ?
mine i try 250km must on reserve liaoz...
= (
Me normally riding 90KM/h on expressway, 70 on street road.
Phantom got 2.2L on reserve, should be able to find a petrol kios in 60KM ....even can ride to JB to pump petrol..... -
There might be some reason :Originally posted by chong chong:never drag my gear loh... hate to hear the stress sound from my babe... still got 1000km more to change the plugs and oil... so guess not that problem...
1. Check all the moving part are well lubricated (chain, etc).
2. Tyres air pressure ?
3. Filter ?
Maybe time to go for a service, tune carb, clean up exhaust.... -
huh pro leh.. too much for me i guess. mine babe only half yr old so dont think its such issue... anyway thks for the reply.Originally posted by LaoCheh:There might be some reason :

all these factors contribute to higer fuel consumption:
-heavy pillion
-constant speed over 110
-goin up slopes (expressway is ok cos 6th gear, but not those when u gotta drag ur 1st/2nd/3rd gears!)
-stoppages at traffic lights
-short trips (Four 5-km trips consume more fuel than a single 20km trip) -
when i first got the bike i mantain 80km/h all the way lehz but i think nv reach 350 for full tank also....maybe nv until realli empty push bike tat kind~Originally posted by LaoCheh:517km is based on avarage 47KM/L ..... Full tank can last for about 350-370KM...
