I wonder why you are getting excessive vibration with the balance shaft engines?


I think that they should change the name to Haojiang and offer more models into the UK.
They make some very good standards.

Hello !
Sorry ; The engine I have is 156 FMI without balancing shaft and I rode plenty of bikes any kind ; even single Honda (up to 500cc) and I never saw such vibrations (I am 55 always riding).
I am not in UK (perhaps my profile says that ? ) but in France.
It seems availability of spare parts if needed could be a trouble.
Regards.

I believe that Haojiangs approach to the market is more professional then others, they typically establish stronger distribution channels then others.


If that is the case then any of the engines would have or should have equal parts and service support. Regardless to if they are an exact copy of a Honda or Suzuki or a propriety TYAN engine.


I am most intrigued with the TYNT line they make, they are rated better.





I apologize for assuming you into the UK, who is distributing the bike in France or don’t you know? .

Hello,
Hao Jiang with the brand Revatto was distributed by Greentech industries and it seems they stopped this activity or at least motorcycles (www.greentech-industries.com/).
Spare parts seem available at (www.toutdechine.com/) and also complete bikes.
In France I do not see any distribution system.
Most of Chineese motorcycles and like are still in a strange situation.
Regards.

We are working with Tayo for a long times, i think you will be very impressed at next season. Factory under reconstruction now, as they start to prepare a new model line.

Finally finished. Will be open for orders at September. 250 cc oil-cooled engine, EFI.

That’s interesting Alex, the engine looks like a twin cam?

That bike looks like it is an upgraded version of their Phantom ZT200-7A on their website. it sells for 8180.00 Yuan ($1350.00) in China.

I would like to know more about the engine they are using, what is the manufacturing source and power rating of the 250cc. They claim 17.68hp for the 200cc engine, a twin cam 250cc I would bet it would be rated well over 20hp?

Engine -TYAN , EFI from Delphi . I will know a little bit more after my trip to factory, I still do not have specification yet.

Here are some images of the Zonte Phantom, it is dificult to see in the images what engine it is sporting.
It could be a quarter liter twin cam….








There are no updates on the TYAN website, however they do offer up some numbers on costs per unit to meet CIII Emission Standards within China....as well as some insight into the industry in Jiangmen....the Grand River.
