Scooter Variator and Rollers Check After 6000 Miles. Teyin Falcon 200
I previously checked the variator at 3000 miles. Then the belt looked like new and rollers had 50% life in them. Now at 6000 miles checking again.

Epic Trip In the Rain Storm, 122 Miles On Honda Rebel
there is no easy way just go to the mechanic.
also I am suprised your Plastic cover on the muffler didnt melt. When mine broke did the wood shim to avoid that aweful sound! thank god I thought someone dropped my bike at work! Im glad I found ya.. mine is tagged as moped looks like NY makes you register as a motorcycle
I have since replaced the muffler to a completely different one, a much lighter with universal bolting options. No more issues, although a bit louder.
It's a tao tao.. just be thankful it rolls down hill in neutral.
Thanks for the review of the Tao Tao, just watched your 10,000 miles one too. We don't get this model here in Wales UK but some very similar. What size wheels are you running on. Standard 10" or bigger?
What is that rattling sound on startup? Bendix?
Hello friend 👍. I remember those days & trouble with the bendix / starters lol. 🛵🎬🔧🫡
Yes, especially taking it all apart for the first time :))))
Using angle grinder next to flammable aerosol = bad idea
That was pretty nice. We could have seen more of the guts of what was going on. That would have been great but it was a pretty good video. Thanks!
How do I fix the Bendix hole where I put my Bendix in it's a little deformed a little worn. Would that be a problem for still not starting .
As I wrote an updated description under the video, my main problem turned out to be the lithium battery, that I killed by using a regular battery charger over the winter. My bendix was also a little faulty, as it was dirty and didn't retract freely, if I remember correctly. Is your scooter cranking? Does bendix turn the engine over? Is starter getting enough power? If bendix is not retracting freely, try cleaning it or replace it. It's not an expensive part. But first make sure you have enough power going to starter and your starter is healthy/
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks I appreciate your response and help. Yes I did not check the starter. But what are the symptoms I should look for if the starter is the problem, I think it turns over at one point and starts...but when I turn it off and try again just whirring. I looked closer and saw that the hole that it was in was out of shape. so I was wondering if that was the issue.
@@stauf09 To rule out the battery and starter, hook up an extra booster to your battery, nd try to replicate the issue. Knowing that the battery provides consistent power to start the engine, and the issue repeats, then yes, your bendix hole could be at fault. If I remember correctly, the bendix should not be sitting in just cast aluminum hole of the engine cover, but there should be a spacer that is in the hole and that spacer will make the bendix shaft to sit snugly in the hole. Make sure you have that spacer or if it's deformed, replace it.
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks that's a five star help...
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 one more thing I forgot to ask how do I remove the the deformed Bendix brush spacer
Glad to see the update on the new scooter my friend 🛵👍. Bought a bunch of scooter parts & have you ever heard of a gy6 extra long case ?. Guess its so you can run a 14 to 15 inch wheels. I didnt know they made them until now lol. Scooter looks & sounds great 😎✌️
I've heard about it, and I believe I saw a few videos of it on RUclips. But that was a long time ago. Thank you for the comment, I will definitely try to refresh my memory and look something up :) .... After spending few minutes researching, I didn't find anything on extra long cases. I did find some stretched out custom built scooters but no factory extra long case. If possible, please link us to some examples. Thanks! :)
Glad to see this channel just found you
Nice bike . Congratulantions.
Not a 150 big bore. The 168cc is called a "K" block motor. It's different than the QMJ engines and if you look on the block it says QMK. This engine is used in some 200cc (actually still 168) ATV's and it has bigger bits and bearings. I spoke to an industry rep who confirmed it.
Thank you for that information! 👍👍👍😊
Nice shoes, Bro!
I'm 6ft2 220lbs do you think this bike would accommodate my size and weight
I just checked the bike’s manual, and maximum loading weight is 340 lbs. Also, as a full size scooter, you should have plenty of room. Good luck! 😊
Does this scooter require a license, an M license, and insurance?
In NY State any motorcycle rated by factory to speeds over 29MPH requires a motorcycle license. Most Chinese scooters with 50cc engines are rated below that and you can ride them with regular drivers license. In both cases you will need an insurance policy. You can find a police around $100 per year for liability, or for around $200 for full collision, including road side assistance. My bike is 168cc and rated to go 55mph by factory. So yes, will need that M license with that.
Depends on the state. here in AZ you dont need to do anything with it. No tag or insurance. No endorsement.
Re the problem in getting the oil pump off - did you have the right screwdriver? The screws on these Japanese bikes use a special profile of screwdriver called JIS - Japanese Industrial Standard. If you have JIS drivers they fit the screws properly and don't slip - especially when an impact driver is used. Good info on adapting the rubber boot. What a pain of a job Honda made of this. Sliding it off looks far better if it actually works. I could hardly believe (just like you) that the after market pump came with a filthy oil scree in it. It doesn't suggest the whole pump will be any good, and it is such a vital part of the engine. If that pump fails - the motor is toast.
I probably had the wrongest screwdriver for that, something most of us have for everyday use. Also, an impact with the correct (JIS) tip would do the trick. Good point! Thank you for that info:)
Bro. You can always change your primary and secondary gear sets for increasing or decreasing your top speed.. don't mislead your audience... And yes, you change your exhaust and intake restriction and you will get a different power band.. please don't mislead your people that watch your videos... Don't be that guy
Oh yeah... B-T-W it probably wouldn't hurt you to invest in a cover for that bike.. they're only like 20 or 30 dollars
Where do you get parts for these bikes online?
eBay. Lots of parts, ship pretty quickly. There are warehouses in US storing them.
No complete motor rebuild-buy a whole new engine block. Oh shit you already did. Ton of rust on that tail pipe!
I hate dealerships-they do nothing for you-I'm going to be my own mechanic! 10K miles !
RUclips is a great source for any repairs on Chinese scooters. I haven't heard about any local shops accepting Chinese scooters.
Great review I'm buying mine that's just like that one today!! Thanks dawg
Good luck! :)
Somewhere in the back of my mind, I'm thinking that I saw another video where the guy replaced the stock muffler with a new lighter weight muffler I think from Amazon. Is that stock muffler real heavy? Maybe a lighter weight muffler wouldn't be breaking that bracket. I'm really impressed with that seat and the stitching. It really makes the whole scooter look high class. I wish a mandatory requirement for posting a scooter on RUclips would be to find the steepest hill in the city and show how well the scooter runs up that hill. I've got a couple hills here in Central New York that make me wonder if a scooter could climb up them fast enough to not slow down all the cars behind me.
I agree. Definitely too heavy for the thickness of the mounting plate. At high speeds (50=) going through a bump did it's job. Yes, I have a stock muffler still, but I reinforced the plate and bracket.
I've been trying hard to narrow down which scooter to buy. I like the Tank but it has no foot room. My next choice is the Vitacci Force. I see on your Falcon that you can have your feet flat or up on the sides - that's what I'm looking for. Thanks for posting the video to let us prospective buyers see these things. My next worry is Vitacci a better brand and construction than the Dong Fang type scooters? That oil capacity does worry me since the engine is air cooled it must also rely on the oil to cool it too. Same oil capacity on the 150 as on the 50 doesn't make sense. I see you bought from Red Fox. That encourages me there, too. By the way, I'm over in Syracuse, NY. It would be nice if there were some scooter clubs around like there are for the GROM riders.
Thank you for the comment! About the scooter club… it will have to be a Chinese Scooter Club 😂. I don’t think we would fit in with Yamahas and Vespas 😅😅😂
What pho e holder do you have?
My phone holder is a modified, pieced together from 2 phone holders thing :)
What kind of saddle bags do you have for it. I have a 2014 honda rebel cmx250cc
I got it on eBay, something very generic, probably from China. Don't remember the details anymore, but it cost about $30
Great video. Thank You for sharing your experience.
why are you doing all tyhis work on the scooter,surely the lady that hit you should be paying to get this fixed
Thank you for your input. I'm doing my research........
Thank you. Is it possible to wear out the pulley gear teeth? I replaced the bendix and the problem persists. Or else I bought a bendix with a problem.
Здравствуйте не подскажите как убедиться и проверить что насос работает и качает?
Unfortunately I have no idea. I just replaced the pump because I couldn't remove the old one (I destroyed the old one to check the oil screen).
Hi, really enjoying your videos. I am wanting to know if you prefer scooters with a carburetor or Fuel Injection? I am trying to decide which would be best in the long run. Thank you
I never had a fuel injector bike. When buying the last scooter, I tried to avoid fuel injection only because I am not familiar with the quality of them on Chinese bikes. I know that on carbureted Chinese bikes the first thing I replace is the carburetor. Which I did on mine. They are cheap, I know how to tune and change the jets. It worked for me for 5 summers and winters and that’s the only reason I’m ok with it. Injector may be a lot better, especially in big temperature drops, but I’m not ready to enter the unknown on this yet 😊
Wow!😂
where in n.y. are you???
Orange County, near Harriman
It’s fun riding in the rain. You will dry out pretty quickly after it stops raining.
It did stop raining on the way back and I arrived pretty dry, considering. It was a fun trip :)))
I mean you can buy a new engine for like 300 or 400 bucks
Yes, I could. But I outgrew the 50cc moped and the new scooter meets my needs better. Back then I had no motorcycle license, so 50cc was only way to go for me.
It's been nine months. How has the scooter held up so far. I have the 200cc DF Super so I'm curious how the components have held up.
This summer will be 2 years of ownership, 5000 miles. Besides the muffler mount fix the scooter has not given me any trouble. I did adjust my speedometer markings as factory marking are making me 17% faster. It held up for 2 New York winters, some rust is starting to appear on certain parts and screw heads :). Looks like we have the same engine :)
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 I bought mine almost exactly two years ago. Yours will be the gauge I judge mine against.
Here is the link to RUclips video where I saw the oil screen modification ruclips.net/video/_3CLbhZQUas/видео.html
Can someone post the video he references at 03:33? I can't find it. (Screen modification)
ruclips.net/video/_3CLbhZQUas/видео.html
I literally blinked at 08:35 and missed you putting the cover back on... = )
Not relevant, but I was watching what you did, (at one minute time stamp) and it seemed like there was a big tire beside you, but after I really looked, it was your keyboard.
your videos are very good
rip fred space 😢 i wish you were here
My mom has a 1972 Kawasaki 90, it can do 70 mph on a good day and gets 85-100 MPG. Unfortunately, it runs but needs parts to make it safe to drive. Parts are extremely difficult to find for it
I can imagine it will be more and more difficult finding parts for a 50+ year old bike :)
More videos my friend.
Your new bike is still very similar to my 2008 150. But i see your bike has some features that have been improved. cool scooter!
They do make progress. But my bike is basically a 150 with 168cc big bore kit. So will see how long it will last. I currently have 4400 miles on it, and I use it through NY winters, This is a second winter for us, and we have no issues. The battery is a little weak , but I use a power bank boost in cold temps. So far so good :)
I am from Philippines
Can i buy your crankcase?
I work for a school bus company and change oil on buses a ton. Best thing to do is take a long alignment bar and grind it down to a sharp point and punch a hole in the bottom of the filter and just let it drain out before you take it off. Takes longer but is better than filling your arm pit with diesel oil.
Thank you for that tip! That makes a lot of sense actually, as the filter walls are so thin. I just did the fuel filter and fuel/water separator change, and since the bus had been sitting for 2 years before I bought it, they had already started to rust, so pretty hard to remove. My strap wrench put a decent dent on a spin on fuel filter :).
I'll buy that for $1
