Easy tips for driving the most popular motorcycle in the world.
Steps
- Turn on the ignition - the N for neutral will light up.
- Flip out the kick starter arm and kick firmly downwards, better still use the electric starter if there is one, it's the big yellow button on the right handle - the engine should start easily.Advertisement
- Understand that this motorcycle is for easy operation. It uses a centrifugal clutch rather than a manual clutch so you will not find a lever on the left handle. To get into gear, simply step down on the left foot pedal and you are in first gear - but still not moving.
- To get going, gradually twist the accelerator on the right handle bar backwards (towards the rider) and you are off.
- Once on the move, changing gears is fairly simple. Roll the throttle shut (away from the rider) and step down on the left foot pedal again. Repeat for 3rd and 4th gears.
- Regulate your speed using the throttle.
- To stop, simply roll off the throttle and apply the brakes.
- The front brake is on the right handle and rear brake is operated by the right foot pedal.
Community Q&A
- QuestionHow do I install a piston into the caliper?CrayFish715Community AnswerThe key is to be gentle. After you have replaced the square rubber O-ring, roll the ring upwards slightly and then place the piston into the caliper. I used a fat bolt and a few gentle tap with a hammer. If it's stuck, use some brake fluid to lubricate.
- QuestionIs this automatic or manual?Community AnswerIt would be a automatic if there is no clutch lever.
- QuestionIs this rotating gear? For example, gear 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - N ? Or do I need to press upward to reduce the gear using my toe?Community AnswerOn Chinese motorcycles sometimes you shift down to increase the gear, on US bikes you shift up to increase. On manual bikes, the gearing is usually 1-N-2-3-4-5 and on most automatics it is N-1-2-3-4.
Tips
- - Always wear a helmet and preferably gloves too.Thanks
- - After stopping, it is possible to change from 4th gear directly to N (neutral) because of the rotary gear system. Don't worry, it does not work when the bike is being ridden, only when it is stationary.Thanks
- - To slow down and or stop, apply both brakes together, more on the front and somewhat less on the rear, it's all to do with the dynamics of riding.Thanks
Warnings
- Although engine capacity is only 100cc and pumps out a mere 6Hp, it's still good enough to get you in trouble! (top speed about 90kph or 57mph).Thanks
- Since there is no manually operated clutch, downshifting from speed will lock up the rear wheel and cause the bike to skid. (It is possible to downshift - you just need to learn to co-ordinate gear changing and throttle operation)Thanks
