Hi
I'm a 'newbie' to Motorcycle Thailand.
I live in Koh Samui and recently bought a Honda Phantom TA200 ......Phoenix Edition I think? From the green book it was registered in 2003
The bike was running well when I bought her, but in a sad state of repair.I have now stripped the bike and attempting to make her like new, mostly cleaning ,re polishing and replacing worn parts as i go.
I had quite a lot of experience with bikes in London as a youngster in the 60's and repaired/ restored a few. One of those was a KTT series Velocette and also a couple of Sunbeam 500 shaft drive (sidecar bikes).
My biggest problem here in Thailand is that I cannot get a copy of a 'workshop manual' for the Honda Phantom. I have been to the Honda agent many times for parts and the closest I can get is a quick look at the 'parts catalogue' exploded diagrams to figure out what I need!
I asked if they could photostat a copy of this and was greeted with a very firm NO....I even asked if I could quickly copy a few pages with my happy snap camera.....No.
I seem to feel that the Apollo Space Project had less security!!
So the bottom line is that I am trying to find a copy of the 'workshop manual'. I have stripped the side covers of the engine to re polish and feel that I should replace the clutch plates but have no 'spec' to measure the wear, I would also need torque figures to re assemble.
I have no idea as to the Kilometres the bike has done because the speedo cable was missing, I found a replacement but then discovered that the speedo was completely seized and rusted due to a broken glass (replaced by a piece of plastic).......managed to get a brand new one from Honda....at a price
I tried to keep this short....but it is quite a long project.
Are there any ex CIA, KGB, MOSSAD agents that have managed to acquire a copy of Phantom workshop manual...I am quite happy to buy it
If you think that the service manual is hard to get just try to borrow a copy of the parts manual from any Honda agent and tell them you want to take it home overnight, scan it for your own use and bring it back at opening time.
You will have more luck in stealing the Crown Jewels than getting a copy of a manual for a motorbike no longer in production.
What I have managed to do slowly is to go to my local dealer and tell them I am lokking for a couple of items and get them to photocopy a vouple of pages at a time then scan them into my PC.
If anybody needs what I have let me know and I will send what I have.
Question:
Answer:
The problem with locating information about this model is that it is not produced for the US or Canadian markets. At the time of this page's creation, it appears to be sold in the Asian markets of Indonesia, Thailand and Singapore. So I am limited in what information I can find.The Honda Phantom 200 is one of the most popular cruiser style bikes in Thailand. Its 200cc single cylinder engine delivers a surprising amount of power. It is extremely economical, reliable and comfortable to ride, with exceptional handling and braking. From what information I can locate it gets 35 km/l {about 85 mpg}.
It would probably be considered a Scooter in the US even though it is styled after a standard cruiser streetbike.
Here are the technical specifications I was able to locate for it.
