Tao Tao 110D Utility
 

Hello everybody, I bought a new Tao Tao110D Utility for a Christmas present for the family (and a few other toys). There is a Tao Tao dealer just down the road from my house and I paid just over $1200.00 with tax. Its not that bad of quality for the price and surprisingly powerful for a 150cc. There is a strong vibration at above idle rpm but below midrange rpm. I checked the forums and this appears to by normal for a gy6. The quad has a breaklight and headlights. The top head light is kinda cheesy looking though. I haven't done much with it but ride it around the yard since it is a Christmas present. (I have it hidden at another house). I changed the oil and sparkplug as soon as I got it home. The dealership assembled it (they were all out of blue un assembled but the sold it to me for only $25.00 assembly fee since they were out). I had to go over it and tighten up bolts especially for the racks. (so much for dealership quality assembly). This quad is an automatic with a had shifter F-N_R.

The steering takes a little to get used too.

The lighting in the garage is not optimal for taking pictures with a phone

Nice machine!

I encourage you to go over every nut and bolt with Loctite. You'll save yourself a ton of hassle.

Also, put a foot on the front bush guard, and push the front end up and down. Do the front wheels remain parallel?

Those tires look better than what we usually see. While it is hidden away you have time to make upgrades and take care of the prep work that likely was not done by the dealer.

I listed this as a 110d its actually a 150d, I bought a 110d but i'm still putting it together. I forgot to take pictures as I started assembling it, all I have left to do is loosen the chain, change the oil and spark plug. On the 150 when you push down on the brush guard the front wheel tilt. I knew it did this but for the price I can live with it.

I already tightened bolts and changed oil and spark plug. I may go back a locktight them as Weld suggested. I'm current putting finishing up assembling a 110D (this is a 150d not a 110 as a I posted). Then I have an endure bike and a BMS Ranch Pony being delivered any day I have to put together.

Might be easily fixed. http://www.chinariders.net/showthread.php?t=14105

so the fix it to turn the tie rod ends upside down so that the nuts are on toP?

You want the tie rods to be as close to parallel with the a arms as possible. This will help eliminate bump steer that is common on these atvs.

They need to follow the same arc as the suspension.
