Fuel and Oil Requirements

Fuel

Use unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Check fuel level prior to each ride.

Engine Oil

Genuine Motor Oil is the oil brand recommended by Royal Alloy. Your scooter operates under intense conditions, including higher engine speed, hotter temperatures, and higher compression ratios than other vehicle types. These conditions subject the oil to significant operational stress and require a lubricant specifically designed for scooters.

Only use JASO MB 15W-40 engine oil in your engine.

JASO MB oils are very low friction oils formulated for use in engines that do not have wet clutch systems. Other oil types may severely damage your engine and void any warranty.

All JASO rated oils will display the JASO oil classification on the bottle within an outlined border.

M001GEN001 MB

Many oils claim to “meet or exceed” JASO ratings but are not officially certified. If an oil does not have a 10-character oil code and the JASO MB rating prominently displayed on the label, then the oil is not certified by JALOS and should not be used in your scooter.

CHECK YOUR ENGINE OIL LEVEL BEFORE EACH RIDE

Transmission Oil

Genuine Motor Oil is the brand recommended for use in your Royal Alloy Scooter.

Use good quality GL-4 85W-140 gear oil. Check gear oil regularly and change oil according to maintenance schedule.

Breaking-in of New Scooter

The first 500 miles are the most important in the life of your scooter. Proper breaking-in operation during this period will help ensure maximum life and performance from your new scooter. The parts are manufactured with high quality materials, and machined parts are finished to close tolerances. Breaking-in allows the machined surfaces to lap each other and mate smoothly. Freeing up of internal parts is achieved after approximately 60 running hours, and during this breaking-in period the engine will loosen up and performance will improve.

Maximum Throttle Operation Recommendation

This table shows the maximum recommended throttle operation during the break-in period.

Initial 500 miles	Less than 1/2 throttle
Initial 1000 miles	Less than 3/4 throttle

Vary the engine Speed

Engine speed should be varied and should not be held at a constant speed. This allows the parts to be “loaded” with pressure, and then unloaded, allowing the parts to cool. This aids the mating process of the parts. It is essential that some stress be placed on the engine components during breaking-in to ensure this mating process. Do not, apply extensive load on engine.

Avoiding Constant Low Speed

It is not beneficial when breaking in the engine to operate it at a constant low speed. Allow engine to accelerate freely within the recommended maximum limits. Do not, however, use full throttle for the first 1000 miles.

Allow Engine Oil to Circulate Before Riding

Allow sufficient idling time after warm or cold engine start up before applying load or revving up engine. This allows time for lubricating oil to reach all critical engine components.

First Service

The first service is the most important service your scooter will receive. During breaking-in, all engine components will have bedded in, and all other parts will have seated in. All adjustments should be restored, all fasteners should be tightened, and the old oil should be replaced.

Timely first service will ensure optimum service life and performance from the engine.

Caution

✧ First service should be performed as outlined in the inspection and maintenance section of this manual.

Inspection Before Riding

Before riding your scooter, be sure to check the following items. Never underestimate the importance of these inspections. Perform all checks before riding the machine, each time.

2. Use turning indicator to enter traffic.

Caution

Special attention should be paid to the traffic approaching you from behind.

1. Begin driving.

Release rear brake lever, and gradually rotate throttle grip, letting scooter gradually accelerate.

Caution

◇ Excessive rotation of grip can lead to the danger of sudden acceleration.

1. Adjust Speed

The speed of your scooter can be adjusted by turning the throttle grip. Rotate grip towards yourself to speed up (counterclockwise). Gradual rotation is recommended. Rotate grip back clockwise to slow down.

1. Apply Brakes

Combined application of both brakes is recommended for maximum stopping power and even brake wear.

8. Slowing Down and Braking

Quickly release throttle grip or rotate backwards (clockwise) to decelerate scooter. Squeeze both brake levers simultaneously to bring scooter to a stop. It is advisable to reduce the speed by gradual application of the brakes. Combined application of both brakes is recommended for maximum stopping power and even brake wear.

Caution

✧ Using only the front or rear brake individually may cause a side slide. Harsh braking and sharp turning are two of the major causes of loss of traction and crashes.

Special care should be taken in rainy and wintery conditions.

Damp or wet road surfaces may reduce level of grip and cause skidding. Sharp turning during acceleration should be avoided, and an appropriate distance should be kept from the vehicles ahead. Please be mindful that the braking distance can double in rainy an icy condition.

Skidding may occur on wet roads, therefore concentrate, and be ready to apply the brakes cautiously at any time. Check brakes after washing scooter or riding through water.

After washing the scooter or riding through standing water, braking effect may be reduced. If this occurs, observe slow riding and gentle braking to allow time for the brakes to restore to normal function.

Caution

✧ To prevent scooter from falling off main stand, never park scooter facing down on a slope, or park it on a loose or soft surface.

Lock the handlebar

When parking scooter, lock handlebar to prevent theft.

Inspection and Maintenance

The maintenance schedule indicates the intervals between periodic services in miles and months. At the end of each interval, scooter must be inspected, lubricated and/or serviced. If scooter is used under heavy load conditions, such as continuous full throttle operation or used in dusty environments, certain services should be performed more often to ensure reliability of machine. See Maintenance Section for further explanation. Additionally, see dealer for further guidelines. Steering components, suspension and wheel components are key items and require diligent and competent servicing. For maximum safety, inspecting and servicing by an authorized and/or qualified dealer is recommended.

First Maintenance

The first maintenance is the most important. During running in, all engine parts will have been matched to each other, bedding in will have occurred with other parts. All parts should be readjusted, fasteners tightened, and contaminated engine oil and filters replaced.

Spark Plug

NGK CR7HSA 0.6-0.07mm .022-0.024 inch Inspect Insulator for Cracks

Use small brass brush or cleaner to remove carbon deposits at first 500 miles or every 3000 miles going forward. Adjust spark plug gap with a thickness gauge to 0.6-0.7mm. Spark plug should be replaced every 6000 miles.

When removing carbon deposits, indicate colour of spark plug porcelain tip. Colour can indicate whether the standard spark plug is suitable for usage, assuming all other parts are running correctly. If standard spark plug is dark black, this may be indicative of short distance trips where engine does not reach full running temperature. A normal operating spark plug should be light brown or tan in colour. If spark plug tip colour is white, this may be due to overheating or lean fuel mixture condition. In this case, scooter should be inspected by authorized dealer and/or qualified service mechanic as soon as possible.

Caution

Do not over-tighten spark plug or cross thread. In order to avoid damage to cylinder head, do not allow the contamination to enter engine through spark plug hole.
The standard spark plug for this scooter has been carefully selected to meet the vast majority of all operation ranges. If spark plug colour indicates a standard spark plug is not applicable for your specific scooter usage, consult an authorized dealer before selecting an alternate plug or heat range. Selection of improper spark plug can lead to severe engine damage.

Fuel Hose

Replace fuel hoses every four years.

Air Filter

The air filter element used in the Royal Alloy Grand Tourer 150 scooter is a polyurethane foam element. If filter element is clogged with dust, intake resistance will increase with a resultant decrease in power output and increase in fuel consumption due to the richer mixture. Check and if necessary.

Remove air filter element according to the following procedures:

1. Remove screws.
2. Remove two fixing slippers by sliding them rearward.
3. Remove air filter cover.
4. Remove filter element.

Wash air filter element as follows:

1. Fill a container of a suitable size with non-flammable water soluble cleaning solvent. Immerse filter element in the solvent and wash it clean.

2. Squeeze the solvent off the washed filter element by pressing it between the palms of both hands. Do not twist or wring filter element as this may lead to tearing.

3. Rinse in warm free running water and allow to dry by using compressed air or warm air dryer.

4. Immerse filter element in clean engine oil, squeeze excess oil from filter element, leaving it slightly wet with oil.

5. Reinstall cleaned air filter element in reverse order of removal. Be sure that filter element is securely in position and is sealing properly.

Caution

Before and during the cleaning operation, carefully examine air filter element for any tears in the material. A torn filter element must be replaced with a new one.
If driving under dusty conditions, the filter element must be cleaned more frequently.
✿ Never operate engine without filter element. This can lead to irreparable wear.
Always ensure filter element is always in excellent operational condition. The life of the engine depends largely on this single component.

Carburetor

Factory set carburetion is the basis of the performance expected of your engine. The carburetor is factory set for the best carburetion. Do not attempt to alter its setting. There are two items of adjustment possible under normal running: 1. Engine idle speed and 2. Throttle cable slack. Adjust carburetor idle speed end throttle cable slack periodically.

Engine Idle Speed Adjustment

1. Start up the engine and let it warm up.
2. After engine warms up, turn the throttle stop screw in or out so that engine runs at 1600 ± 200 rpm.

If you have a tachometer, you can do this adjustment by referring to the procedures described above. Engine idle speed should be adjusted only after engine warms up.

Throttle Cable Adjustment

1. Loosen lock nut.
2. Adjust cable slack by turning adjuster in or out to a slack of 0.5\~1.0mm.
3. After adjusting slack, tighten lock nut.

Hydraulic Brake Fluid

For front and rear disk brake model

Grade: DOT4.1

Note:

1. Only DOT4.1 glycol-based hydraulic brake fluid is equipped in this vehicle. Do not mix with silicon-based or oil-based brake fluid. This will damage the hydraulic brake system.
2. Do not use residual fluid from a previously opened container. Brake fluid can easily absorb unwanted moisture from the atmosphere.
3. Do not over-fill or spill brake fluid onto painted surface.

Tyres

Check tyre inflation pressure and tyre tread condition. For maximum safety and good tyre life, the tyre pressures should be inspected on a regular basis particularly before long journeys or with passengers.

Tyre Pressure

Insufficient air pressure in the tyres not only increases tyre wear but also seriously affects the stability of the scooter. Under-inflated tyres make smooth cornering difficult and over-inflated tyres decrease the amount of tyre in contact with the ground, which can lead to skids and loss of control. Be sure that the tyre pressure is always within the specified limits. Tyre pressure should only be adjusted when the tyres are cold.

Cold Inflation Tyre Pressure

Front Wheel	29 psi
Rear Wheel	32 psi

Caution

✿ Tyre inflation pressures and general tyre conditions are extremely important to the proper performance and safety of the scooter. Check your tyres frequently for both wear and correct inflation pressures

Tyre Tread Condition

Operating scooter with excessively worn tyres will decrease riding stability and can lead to loss of control. It is recommended that a tyre be replaced when remaining depth of tyre tread is 1.6mm or less.

Caution

✧ Standard tyres on scooter are 110/70/12 front and 120/70/12 rear.Use of a larger tyre may result in clearance issues.

Fuse

The fuse is located next to the battery. If there is any electrical system failure, first check the fuse. In case the fuse blows, there is a 10A spare fuse.

Caution
✧	Always replace blown fuse with correct amperage fuse. Never use substitutes, e.g. aluminum foil or wire, to replace a blown fuse. If spare fuse blows shortly after installation, there may be a major electrical problem. Consult dealer or a qualified service mechanic immediately.

Troubleshooting

If engine refuses to start, perform following inspections to determine the cause:

1. Is there enough fuel in fuel tank?
2. Is there fuel reaching carburetor from fuel tank?
3. Loosen the carburetor drain plug and drain the fuel in the carburetor. Refit the drain plug.
4. Depress kick-starter lever several times.
5. Loosen drain plug and check to ensure there is fuel is in the carburetor.
6. If it has been determined that fuel is reaching carburetor, ignition system should be checked next. Remove spark plug and re-attach it to spark plug head.

Caution

Do not allow fuel to spill. Do not allow any fuel to come into contact with hot engine, exhaust, or ignition system. Extinguish any smoking materials from any other fire or heat source.

1. While holding spark plug firmly against engine, crank engine with ignition switch in ON position. If ignition system is operating properly, a blue spark should jump across spark plug gap. If no spark occurs, consult dealer for repairs.

Caution
✧	Do not hold spark plug close to open spark plug hole inside cylinder head, as gasoline vapor inside cylinder could be ignited, which can possibly start a fire.
✧	To reduce chance of electrical shock, hold outer steel shell of spark plug against an unpainted metal portion of engine. Due to possibility of electrical shock, anyone with a heart condition or pacemaker should delegate this task to an authorized dealer or mechanic.

Engine Stalling

1. Check fuel supply in fuel tank.
2. Check ignition system for intermittent spark.
3. Check engine idle speed.

Caution

Consult authorized dealer before attempting to repair any possible problems, especially if machine is within warranty. Tampering with machine yourself while under warranty may affect warranty consideration.

Storage Procedures

If scooter is to be left unused for extended period (e.g. winter storage) the machine needs special servicing requiring appropriate materials, equipment and skill, for this reason, we recommend that you trust this maintenance work to the dealer. If you need to service machine for storage yourself, follow the general guidelines below.
