Help * Typhoon 160cc 2 temps * HANDLES VIBRATION

Hi,

Wonder why my bike the Piaggio Typhoon 160cc 2 temps is so vibration at handles.

I've checked the oil & gas, variator & clutch, piston and crankshaft even renew the 2 wheels.

Please advise me if you met it before.

Big thanks/ Jason
PS: here some pics of my passion. How is my 360 pipe which was hand made by our guy

 

have the tires been balanced?

vibrations could be due to a buckled/dented wheel
worn engine mount bushes
worn swing arm bushs or the bushs can be too tight
worn silent bush

 

How did you get 160cc?

 

Hi Ramo & Creamsodauk

1. Iv widened the piston (60)



2. Then Iv change this to fix it wz piston size:



3. Then I replaced the secondary gear as it:



4. Iv change the carburetor to 28mm wide mouth and air filter:



5. Now I think I should change:
a. Piston to 68 wide (full kit)
b. Lengthen the crankshaft to 1.5

And also check the advises of CREAMSODAUK.

let us know how the gear up kit goes

 

when i tested: it went slow when departure and i feel the engine is so weak (lack of power). The gear is Malossi so that is why i need to widen the piston to 68 ??!! to make the engine more poweful!

When the bike was original one, i drove it also vibration much . and when Iv tuned it as the above, and change the wheels & carburetor (fr 25 to 28mm mounth). This vibration is decreasing but it still.

Thanks much for your attention because in our country Vietnam, I think only me restrore this bike , that is why noone might help me here!

 

First, get a set of street tires, those knobby tires that come OEM, ride bad.....I put a set of

Pirelli Sl26 Scooter Tires on mine.....Then, I would get some aftermarket shocks.......
I don't think the plastic's have much to do with the ride, except for aerodynamics at high speed....and maybe the extra weight would help the bouncing......

 

Hi greg,
