Ang ganda nga nitong motor na ito ng makita ko sa cyclemar. and im willing to buy it this december. Gusto ko lang din makarinig ng rating sa inyo tungkol sa motor na ito. By the way, tinignan ko ung makina nya tapos may naka-embose na "ISO 9001 Certified" does it mean pumasa sa lahat ng standards ang motor na ito? Teka yung mga parts and services ay available sa atin? If so, I will definitely buy this bike! Thanks in advance sa may magbibigay ng ratings. :)

Bro, andito mga pix nung bike. :)

Check mo nalang hanggang page 2. :)

oo nga. ang ganda talagang bike. i looked at it myself. the parts are amazing. sayang nakabili na ako ng 150cc na brother ng bike na ito. kung alam ko lan...

let's discuss anything about the Z200...parts, modifications, repairs, features, performance, etc.

let me start up this thread...my gas tank leaks everytime its violently shaken (naalog kapag nag sudden stop). the service center just tightened some nuts under the tank...but still there's still a leak medyo konti na lang unlike before...pero there's still a leak (so annoying)...

does the tank of the Z200 have a breather underneath?...sorry haven't inspected it yet...i know someone have told me about it and its kind of a special feature in the tank. i forgot who told me that but i hope you could explain it again, here. thanks.

there are owners of z200 who PMed me always asking about the tire pressure of the z200, so i'll just share it here:

your manual indicates the tire pressure but i just couldn't figure out what UOM they used. asking the service center people and they say to you 32psi rear/front.

pero ito sa akin lang:
single rider 30psi rear/25psi front
with backride 35psi rear/30psi front

this question was posted in the club forums and i think it would benefit here.

Mga SIR,

Malayo sa topic ang singit na tanong ko , kung okey lang sana. Tanong ko lang kung anong modification na ang nagawa nyo sa Z200 nyo at sa mga nababasa ko sa patunay nyo ay parang hindi hirap mag 120 kph pataas ang Z200 nyo, yung Z200 ko kasi ay hirap maka 100 kph, gusto ko din pumasyal sa tambayan nyo kaya lang ay 2 to 10 pm pa ako hanggang katapusan ng MAY, this coming JUNE ay pang 6 am to 2 pm na ako kaya papasyal ako.

Tnx in advance

if your z200 is brand new, it will really barely reach 80kph. what you need is to finish the breakin period. after your breakin period, you will feel the difference and will surely try to hit the 120kph. and this is stock speed. no mods yet. just after your breakin period, have your bike for tune up and ask your service center people to remove any speed limiter on you carb (some have limiters. mine doesn't)...those limiters are for the breakin period only. it restricts your z200 from pulling up speed more than 80kph...they'll just do some adjustments.

and if you want to hit speeds > 120kph, no need for expensive mods...just minor mods such as bigbird_1's advice:

[QUOTE= bigbird_1]Jumboy,

Re mods, most of us had the exhaust modified by taking out the divider inside the exhaust system. Kayang kaya gawin yan ng mga nagawa ng tambutso. Medyo nasasakal kasi. You also check your carb baka sakal din ang timpla especially kung break-in ka pa. Also patune up mo after the break-in. Ginawa ko din yung sabi ni chloe, tinanggal ko yung foam na air filter. Yung stainless na screen lang natira para sa mga coarse particles. Yun lang pre, tatakbo na ng more than 120 kph bike mo. Ako nga lagi 100-120 kph takbo ko sa SLEX.[QUOTE]

mga sirs,

My brother also owns an explorer z200, mga 2 months palang. tanong ko lang kung anong mas ok na gamiting gas, unleaded or premium gas?

Thanks and more power sa group nyo

Newbie Rider,

Actually you could use either of the two. Previously, I use unleaded for my scooter and Z200 but my mechanic told me to change to premium because the unleaded leaves some sediments in your tank that later on will cause some problems. I am not actulally sure what he means but now I use premium gasoline. I have not seen much difference but I still use it anyway.

maraming salamat po sa sir bigbird 1 :)

Bro newbie_rider, baka pwede mong dalhin yung motor ng kuya mo or pwede mong ayain ang kuya mo tuwing Saturdays to join our group? Sa Jetti Macapagal station yung meeting place ng grupo. Starts from 4 pm onwards.

sige sir try namin ng brother ko pumunta sa saturday.

z200 owners, have you noticed an electrical cable coming out under your lefthand grip terminates at your clutch handle?

do you know what is it for?...the manual doesn't say anything about it.

Sir Hardliner
Napansin ko nga ang cable na yun. It has something to do with our electric starter. Napansin ko kasi kapag naka-switch on na ang key ko at hindi umilaw ang neutral light hindi gumagana ang electric switch but once you press the lefthand grip sabay ng electric start button mag-i-start na sya. Parang scooter ang dating. hehe

Mga guys. Tanong ko lang kung paano iadjust ung headlights ng z200. Sabi ng mekaniko ko walang adjusting nuts ang z200. And posible rin kayang palitan ng HiD lamps? Sana may mag-entertain d2 sa queries ko. Tnx.

Sir Taulava
Meron po syang adjuster sa leftside ng headlight kung nakasakay ka motor. medyo nakatago nga lang. philip screw po yun.

bro rating the headlights ng z200 35w/35w kung mag 50w/50w ka baka matunaw yung reflector niya.

Mga bosing :* Question lang po, i'm on my break-in period nakaka-360kms na ko, hanggang kelan ba ang break-in period. sabi kc 1000kms eh ang tagal pa non. Sorry sir newbie kc eh :bouncy: just got it last 24 as soon as i got it i had my pipe modified. By the way, can i use a splitfire sparkplug sa bike natin?

hi, newbie here to bikes.... i've also experienced a gas leak... my bike wasn't used for a week since it i still didn't have a CR that time. i haven't brought it yet to the service center for checkup... please see attached pics:

Isn't that oil leak? seems like oil when it is beside your crankcase... If it's gas, try to check the fuel hose fitting on your engine...

it's gasoline... i'll try to check it out over the weekend.
just sharing my experiences with you guys.

Bro,

Yung sa kin may leak din. When I checked, it seems galing cya sa fuel filter. I just dont know kung defective yung fuel filter or dun sa fitting lang nanggagaling. wla kasi cyang clamp. :nuts:

ey, i've experienced that yesterday. sa umpisa palang ayaw gumana yung electric starter, so had to manually start it. dati naman nag start yun even if i don't press the left hand grip. kumbaga, nakapark lang yung bike, insert the key then press the button, bike starts. pero yesterday, nothing happens once button is pressed. :eek:

i've also experienced that once running na yung bike, i stop, then if the engine stops, when i restart again, the electric starter wont start anymore. had to start it again by the pedal. :W

your inputs are highly appreciated :-)

@pranix and bigbird1

fuel leaks:
the one i'm referring to is just 1 drop of leak kapag na-alog yung tank. this was explained to me by chloe, that the leak comes from a hole near the cover inside the tank. the purpose of the hole is to drain water coming in from the cover. the presence of gasoline is because somehow the rubber seal of the cover does not seal properly so gasoline escapes into this canal when the tank is shaken vigorously. this usually takes place when tank is about 3/4full.

as for the case of pranix, i think this is not it...it's either you have a leaking fuel line or a leaking fuel filter...check your fuel petcock, the fuel hose from the petcock to the fuel filter, then the hose going to the carburator.

for the fuel filter...it is advisable that you replace your fuel filters as these oems are not that good. i've already replaced my fuel filter 3 times with oems and still those oems leaked. better buy a good quality fuel filter like those made in japan.

you have to put your gear to neutral. if the gears are not in neutral the starter won't start...but sometimes it does hehe...so much for china quality :) or is it filipino quality control (the bikes are assembled here though).

and yes, the clutch has a switch just like the scooters that you have to squeeze your clutch to start (thanks to godspeed for the info)...but i think some units don't have a functioning clutch switch...like mine (again, china quality or filipino quality control?) :)

@Hardliner
I Guess its more on Filipino Quality control sir. Kung mapansin mo Even sa screws na gamit nila ay walang standard. Sabi nga ng mekaniko ng motorstar ay kung ano na lang daw ang madampot basta ang important is ma-fastend sya.
@Pranix
Kung sakaling namatayan ka at hindi mo sure kung nasaang gear ka then nagmamadali ka dahil nagko-cause ka na ng trapik. Squeeze your clutch then press the electric start button. No need to Kick your starter bro. Madalas ko kasi ma-experience yan before. Hindi ko malaman kung nasaang gear ako kasi sira ang gear indicator ko. Tingin ko para sa ganoong sitwasyon talaga ang wire na nasa clutch natin.

pwede ba malaman name ng mekaniko ng motorstar na sinasabi mo bro?

@bACK2BACK

Sorry bro di ko na matandaan name nya. One time kasi nung binaklas nya mga fairings ko nakita ko na iba iba ang screws na ginamit. I ask him kung bakit ganun at sinagot niya sa akin ay kung ano na lang daw ang madampot na mga gumagawa sa assembly area nila. sumunod na nakitaan ko ng hindi parehas na screw ay sa back light ko.

sabagay totoo nga sabi mo na iba ibang nuts ang nakalagay basta kasya cge lang ang mga assembler nila minsan maluluwag pa kc nga daw quantity production ang habol nila di quality

for me i didn't experience an gas leak except with my gas filter. i bought another gas filter(not from motorstar) and after that no leak.

even though the gas tank has been shaked after i drive i dont experienced a leakage on it.

mga bro... this is the culprit! nung makita ko replacement nila, sabi ko sa labas nalang ako bibili ng replacement.

btw, ano kasama sa bike warranty dyan sa luzon? in my case here in cebu, as per motorstar service center, warranty is only on the engine. is this true?

all d parts excepts mga cover.alam naman nila kung sadya or hinde.all parts basta available basata hanagang maubos warranty booklet mo

as for the fuel filter, i advice you replace it with a much better aftermarket filter. those oems are no good. mura lang naman yung japan made with granite filter Php200++ lang ata.

what brand yun? i spent the half a day saturday looking for a filter which looks expensive, yun nga lang wala sila available, what they have are the really cheap filters. had to settle for a 35 peso worth filter coz lumalakas na tulo ng leak.

bro pranix,

u can buy filter sa mga motorcycle shops at dun sa mga nagbebenta ng posh accessories. minsan kse pag nakita nila ang MC natin sasabihin nila na wala silang ganun di kse nila alam na di naman talaga bigbike ang bikes natin mukhang bigbike lang :O

tama si ragex, huwag ka bibili dun sa mga pang tricycle shops. sigurado oems din benta nila...pwede yang mga oems pang emergency lang kasi di rin yan tatagal like mine...tapos minsan tunog palyado pa dahil may pumapasok na hangin.

can you post a pic of your fuel filter? what brand are you using? where did you buy it? pasensya na po coz ngayon lang ako gumagamit ng bike.

sorry bro i'm still using the 3rd replacement. couldn't find time to go to caloocan. anyway ragex is using an all metal fuel filter, don't know how much he bought it...just ask for the "Made in Japan" fuel filters its also made out of plastic but better in quality.

guys, just saw this on the net... it looks like our bike... sino kaya pwede makagaya sa design nito?

http://streetbike.com.ph/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=60

hmm...it looks more like the loncin cyclone and the JLM.

the motorstar xplorer z200 is in fact the zongshen 200gs. wherein the 200gs have a better exhaust system (i think).

update on the rev limiter:

some service centers will tell you that the carb does not have rev limiter. but some bike mechanics may know of the rev limiter.

additional info was shared to us by speed75 last night that if the rev limiter is totally disengaged, the engine will run efficiently and economically.

this i gotta see. so this coming saturday, i'm going to test the fuel efficiency of the z200 totally without the rev limiter. maybe it will be a week to see the results if they are conclusive. hehehe:)

so XPhils bros, let's test our machines without the rev limiter.

Speed75, thanks for the tip.

Mga Bros.
Okey nga lang kaya talaga tanggalin ang connection ng cable na yun sa Carb natin? Ang worry ko kasi is, it was designed to be there. meaning may purpose sya kaya siya nandun. Mayroon kaya tayong Motor expert or engineers na pwede pagtanungan about this? Cencia na po. Nagtatanong lang. Medyo nagtataka lang kasi ako kung bakit ito nilagay pa dito and eventually tatanggalin din.

where is this speed limiter located and how is this removed?
a friend of mine who also has an xplorer asked the service center mechanic but they don't know a thing about it.
hope you could post some pics where it is located & how it is removed.
thanks.

OT:

Inggit ako sa inyo, you guys can discuss your bikes together. Sarap din pala pag may kapareho bike... may napagtatanungan. Ganda ng bike nyo mga Sir! Nice choice! :)

ei tat, di hamak na mas maganda ride mo...can i test drive your baby? hehe joke lang...i don't ride what's not mine.

@godspeed,
been testing it kahapon, it seems na parang wala lang siya. it does not affect fuel or air. i'll try to research on our carb, kakaiba siya.

@pranix
our carb has two cables, 1 at the top of the carb the other is the visible one at the side of the carb where it is pulling a black pulley (or level, watchamacallit). the cable that is visible to us, that is the limiter where the cable is attached.

sana may nakakaalam ng carb natin and i-share sa atin.

i kinda feel stupid sharing this kase wala na sa kin ang Z200 ko..but i just wana say na it gave me no mjor problems in the 3 months that i rode it nung nagbakasyon ako sa batangas. RPM lang ang naglooloose.. pero madali naman ipagawa sa center.. and yung bolts ng fairings at windscreen you have to tighten every 2 weeks or so. dala ko sa tagaytay. san juan and quezon.. hindi naman ako pinahiya sa mga bike brothers ko (BULAHAW BOYS) and yes 120kph kayang kaya nya.. medyo mavibrate lang compared to my bike here pero ok lang kase expected naman yun. tinanggal ko yung divider ng pipe.. put some fiber and screen para medyo buo pa din pitch. all in all.. yan pa din bike na yan kukunin ko kung sakali payagan pa ko ni misis umulit(haha). no problem sa cornering..ok ang brakes(samahan lang ng engine brake pag biglaan).So i just wana say na sulit na sulit.. you guys have yourselves a good bike. I'll surely miss my black and gray.

mga pard im just new in biking. magandang klase ba ang motor star z explorer 200? Sabi nung iba pangit daw dahil gawang china. San ba maraming bilihan ng big bike na mura and maganda ang quality...... appreciate your reply.

pare.. nagbakasyon ako jan sa batangas for 3 months.. and bago ako umuwi dun ay binasa ko muna ang threads about this bike..positive naman ang feedback ng owners kaya yan ang kinuha ko.. last march lang.. from my experience ay ok sya starting bike kung may balak ka mag upgrade sa 600cc-1000cc bikes..yung RPM lang ay nagloloko minsan.. pero madali naman ipaayos.. at madali lumuwag ang bolts ng fairings.. almost every 2 weeks ay may hinahapitan ako turnilyo. max speed ko ay 120kph kase medyo mavibrate at di ko pa masyado nabreak in..ok naman performance.. malakas makina.. payo ko wag mo ttanggalin ang sticker sa ibabaw ng gas tank kase parang niliha yan ng factory yang ilalim. tinanggal ko kase lahat ng stickers which by the way ay kasama ang top coat pero ok lang. lumuwag din yung kicker kaya tingnan tingnan mo. tinanggal ko din tubo sa loob ng pipe tapos nilagyan ko ng fiber kaya medyo umingay. P300 ay kasya sa akin gas for 2 weeks. black and silver ang color, mukha sya yamaha yzf600r kase sa malayo haha. paadjust mo din ang play ng throttle and kaunting timpla sa carburador. wag mo na tanggalin ang hawakan ng angkasan kase papasukin ng tubig pag umuulan.check sparkplug..dapat NGK,baka palitan ng store. yun lang.
