d.j.jake1/2,
Welcome to The China bike forum. What exact help do you need? There is lot of knowledge of the CG125 clones here so ask specific questions.
I have the CG250 in my Dong Fang bobber and the engine has been solid but not too powerful.
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
actually sir i want to know if anybody have a manual/ i mean users guide of this bike. or any the same users guide of this kind of bike.. i just need it to do some trouble shooting. like ive been to several mechanics but they fixed then sometime problems goes back. specially on my rear brake. its noisy klinging. really embarrassing.
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?

Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
its clinging sir. its like iieettt iiieett iiieettt. continuesly. i found the problem the pistons on the rear break clamp dont move equally. ive serviced it cleaned personlly the seviced cleaned again by a mechanic. but stil its clinging. thank you for that site sir. actually im also a member of that group with the same alias im using here. the problem is same with them they have no users guide. and the thread dont update frequently becouse there are no hot thread members. the bikes on that site is the version 1 of my bike. then the bike i have is version 2. if you have facebook account sir you can add me "keith jayson c. hidalgo" if you want to take a look of my bike. forgive me sir for my english if its not good. and thank you for your responses
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
So you have a rear disk brake that is squealing when you are just riding along or does it do it just when you are braking?
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
yes sir its squealing everytime whem im not braking. then if i brake it stops and sometimes the brake pads just stocked up. and doesnt return to its proper clearance. the pads just bite the disc and dont let go. so the problem is the bike cant run and the brake clamp is heating too hot. i think the master brake pump right over beside the right drivers foot peg has problem. any idea how to service it? like opening it?
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
Usually if one piston is stuck, then the caliper piston is hanging. If both are stuck, the master cylinder is not releasing pressure.
Have you tried to open the bleed fitting on the rear caliper to release the pads? If that will allow the pad to retract then there is a problem in the master cylinder not releasing the pressure. Be sure that some debris hasn't gotten down into the small bleed port in the floor of the master cylinder reservoir. Also, highly unlikely but make sure that the reservoir is not overfilled when cold.
If opening the bleed fitting does not release the pads, then the cylinders are sticking.
The caliper mount bolts go through sleeves that need to be lightly greased to all a little movement when the caliper is activated and released. Be sure that the caliper isn't hanging on the sleeves.
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
wow. thank you very much sir. tomorrow ill do your advice to troubleshoot my rear break. and i think tomorrow ill start to enhance my english. lol

I have both same problems on my China bike:
Front brake is squeaking all times, applying slight pressure on brakes stops it, but it starts back as soon as i release the brake lever.
Once I left by disk lock on while I started the bike, the wheel turned once and got stuck, was a pain to unlock the disk lock after that but it stopped the noise for a couple thousand kms, now it's starting again...
Cheap parts are cheap for a reason, so I'll just change it altogether before to have a bigger pb than that annoying noise.
For the headlight: It obviously is an electric pb, changed the bulb 3 times, and after only a few hours of use; same thing again, Regular-beam is burnt, only High-beam remains, don't ask me why.
Asked the mechanic who checked the battery's output while revving the engine, nothing wrong here so he couldn't fix it...
I suppose it delivers too much power to the reg beam so it fries the filament, I thought of adding a resistor on that specific wire but found a simpler solution:
I drive either on Low-beam so to be seen, either High-beam so I can see.
I lowered the head's angle and I "blacked-out" the head light in a T-shape with black tape so the High-beam don't get me every other user's High-beam in the face.
One could cover just the top half of the head light but the bottom half still is killer, adding the bottom corners to complete the T-shaped mask really helps lower the intensity into smthg like the Regular-beam.
Then u only lose the High-beam, no big deal for me who don't exit the city...
I know it's no real fix, but it solves the problems...
Driving a cheap China bike has cons, u can fight them forever, or play it the China way.
If u need the High-beam cause u drive out of the city a lot, then I'd suggest adding a light 12V resistor on the Reg-beam wire, easy fix without knowing nothing about electrics, if it still fries it, buy a new bulb & try a bigger resistor, till it works.
Good luck.
Re: hello everybody, can anybody please help me?
yes sir youre right sir. the regular light is broken and the bright only remained. i changed now with the same stock light. i bought a pair 2 weeks ago and its ok. 18w bulb.
hahaha i love the last quote sir.

yes having a china bike, you must need to be very techie or else save money for mechanic.
