Motorcycle "Viper-150": description, technical characteristics and reviews from owners

Characteristics of Viper Storm 50

Let's start with perhaps the most interesting thing for any potential buyer - the price of the scooter. It's so affordable that its price is comparable to a mid-performance sports bike. To be more precise, the estimated price of a scooter for the period 2015 is $800. Agree, this is not so much at the present time. But still, this price must correspond to the characteristics of the presented model. Just from the photo of the Viper Storm 50 you can see that the moped is a two-seater and has a strict but comfortable appearance. You can easily carry one, and even two (I had experience) passengers. At the same time, the design of the scooter creates excellent handling. It may seem heavy to some, but for its size it is quite a normal weight (96.5 kg). The fuel tank has an average volume of 6 liters.

general information

Viper motorcycles are produced in close collaboration with an Italian industrial design firm. Therefore, the appearance of the iron horses of this brand is excellent. You can buy them if only because when looking at these motorcycles you would never guess how low the price level is for the Viper models.

Another circumstance that definitely speaks in favor of these motorcycles is their reliability. The manufacturer must check their safety before sending their models to retail. In this case, the test is carried out not once, but twice. The Viper brand, as established by the company's management, cares about the safety of its customers. In addition, Viper motorcycles have relatively inexpensive spare parts. This allows users to easily maintain their iron horses, which is not the case with their more expensive competitors. A powerful engine, long service life - these are a few more reasons explaining why real bikers prefer to buy products from this particular brand.

How can I tell which Viper Storm I have?

The Viper Storm scooter is one of the most popular Chinese scooters, which is very popular in our market. There are several reasons for this - beautiful design, spaciousness, affordable service. The scooter has several Chinese analogues - Fada, Speed ​​Gear and many others. There are also several variations of the Viper Storm, such as Viper Storm New, Viper Storm 2013, and the buyer of spare parts often has a question - which Viper Storm do I have? This article will help you decide what the differences are between these scooters and what kind of scooter you have.

Reviews of Scooter Viper Storm 50 13

Double, powerful

Disposable

When my future husband and I just started dating, he had a one-and-a-half-seater 50 cc “hole” Fada, but after six months of using it, he realized that now he needed to ride it not alone, but with me, which increased the weight and he completely doesn't go uphill...

I’ve had it for 5 years now, I drive on bad roads, and it’s intact, there aren’t even scratches, there haven’t been any serious damage, you can easily drive with three people and a dog... and it’s very economical

Nice shape, lightweight

Slow, not designed for high speeds.

A year ago I bought myself a scooter, and what can I say after a year of using this scooter: This scooter needs to be broken in for 1000 km, and although I didn’t drive it much, the engine was still not perfectly broken in. After 50 km/h, when you start to slow down, the steering wheel starts to go wild...

I bought myself such a scooter in 2011, it was run-in, everything was fine, after 3 years it began to break down suddenly every day

Engine, design, capacity

Assembly, plastic, oil

Good day everyone! I purchased this miracle of Chinese motorcycle technology the year before last. What I want to note first of all is the terrible quality of the plastic and assembly of the scooter! Very few parts were fitted correctly, and after the first 1000 km. they disappeared altogether if the scooter was left on...

No.

Price, weak parts, everything falls off, you won’t find any parts

Good day! Today I’ll tell you about the “super” Viper scooter. So, the build quality is terrible!!! A friend bought it, of course he drove it for the first month and was happy, everything worked so far. But, after a month, the electric starter began to fail, even though the battery was new! In the end, he left it that way. Then the valves bent and flew...

Excellent tires, high-quality assembly, high-quality plastic, alarm system

Hard shock absorbers,

I bought a 2008 Viper storm scooter. What can I say, I drove for kilometers without a single breakdown. Then I changed the piston rings and it works again. As for the plastic, it is of good quality. The instrument panel has a fuel gauge, tachometer, speedometer, and odometer. I especially liked the fact that there is an emergency...

Cheap, eats little

Breaks down frequently, unreliable components

We didn’t buy this scooter, it was given to us, or rather, it was given to us by relatives. Therefore, we didn’t mind just throwing it away in the end. There were a lot of problems with him. At best, a piston engine lasts for one year, then it needs to be replaced or a long time tinkering with repairs. Plastic…

Good for trips for two people.

Often breaks, dimensions.

At first glance, it’s a simple scooter, but if you look deeper, you’ll find out that it has 150 cc and can easily carry two people without any problems. Yes, it often breaks down and this is its disadvantage, and scooters at this time are not cheap...

Design

Price of parts, weak engine. the price is high for a Chinese scooter

It breaks very quickly. It doesn't start well, the parts for it are expensive. You can’t find them everywhere either... The engine is rather weak. doesn't pull well. What I liked was her look. It doesn't look bad, it's beautiful.

Characteristics of Viper Storm models

The main thing that you should immediately understand is that all variations differ only in plastic:

1. Viper Storm is the first model in this line. It can be recognized by the small double headlights at the front compared to other models in the line. Also, sometimes so-called “lenses” were installed. The turn signals on the steering wheel are rectangular. You can view plastic and other spare parts for this model in the Viper Storm section.
2. Viper Storm New is the next model in the line. The main differences are in the front plastic - beak, deco (beak), headlight, plastic steering wheel, front fender. The headlights have become larger and set lower in the beak. The turn signals on the plastic steering wheel have become triangular in shape. The plastic on the front of the scooter has a slightly different shape and different fastenings, and does not fit the regular Storm. These parts can be found in the Viper Storm New section. All other plastics, including the leg guards, floor mats, side panels under the seat, and rear fender remain unchanged, you can see it in the Viper Storm section.
3. Viper Storm 2013 is the next model in the line. Almost the entire body kit of the scooter has undergone significant changes, so the plastic is not interchangeable with the previous “Storms”. The Viper Storm 2013 body kit can be found in the Viper Storm 2013 section.

You can see more obvious differences in the picture.

The products of this manufacturer are presented on the market with a wide range of motorcycles and scooters with different engine sizes. From the line of this Chinese company, every biker will be able to choose a model to suit their taste and the required power. The middle class in the entire model range are the Viper-150 mopeds. They are considered to be the most popular among consumers today.

Viper Storm 50 engine

An equally important attribute of a large scooter is its power plant. And this model has it at the proper level. Despite the fact that the Viper's engine is only 49.9 cm3, it is capable of accelerating to 75 km/h. Of course, there are other modifications of this model with 100 cc engines, but we will look at the 50 cc and most affordable scooter.

This is where our review ends, if you want to buy the Viper Storm 50 or you are the owner of this scooter, write your opinion about it in the comments.

"Viper Storm - 150"

This motorcycle is equipped with an 11 hp four-stroke engine. with., having air cooling. The differences from other models in the line most affect the brakes. The Viper-Storm has discs in front and drums in the back. The weight of this scooter is only 110 kg. Over the entire production period, this model has undergone several modifications. Its size varies depending on the year of manufacture. For example, a 2009 motorcycle has dimensions of 1980/680/1140 mm, while the 2011 one has dimensions of 1940/700/1150 mm. The owners of the Viper-Storm-150 are characterized as a powerful, high-quality and economical motorcycle. The large seat is comfortable for two; even on a long trip, the body of the driver or passenger does not become numb. The motorcycle rides great both on city streets and on country roads. It is quite easy to control as it is very sensitive. Among the shortcomings, drivers highlight an inconvenient kickstarter, rapid wear of parts and rapid failure of plastic passenger footrests. Therefore, most bikers prefer to buy a new Viper 150.

Advantages

• Economical gas consumption.
• Comfortable seating (you can move back like a chopper).
• There is a hook for a bag.
• The presence of a standard alarm system (the sound is loud).
• There is a lot of space between the seat and the steering wheel, the legs are not cramped.
• Good quality leatherette, even after several years of use it retains a presentable appearance (but to further extend its service life, we recommend buying a protective seat cover, it costs 300-400 rubles).
• Low price, both for the scooter itself and for all spare parts for repairs.
• Lightweight (one person can push the scooter or lift it after tipping over).

Design

Viper Wind is a classic “stool”. The scooter is as lightweight as possible and has small dimensions. Available in three standard colors - blue, red and black.

The only facing material is plastic. Unfortunately, the “wings” are not particularly durable, so after a collision and rollover at speed, they will most likely need to be completely replaced.

There is a small trunk under the seat. All sorts of small things will fit there; a backpack or helmet definitely won’t fit. A mount for a trunk is provided. It is strong, no additional reinforcement is required.

Engine

The Viper wind scooter has a simple 4-stroke GY-80 engine. The same is found on models Booster, Fabius, Grand Prix, Legend, Race, Storm, ZipR3, Mustang, Navigator, Spark, Keeway. Perhaps this is the most expensive “spare part” in a moped. If you need to completely replace it, you will have to pay approximately 15,800 rubles for the engine. Individual parts of the power plant are cheap. For example, a 10″ NZR variator cover can be purchased for 1,100 rubles, a 139QMB relay-regulator with a square cross-section can be purchased for 240 rubles.

Brake system

The brake system of the Viper wind is presented in the form of a disc mechanism at the front and a drum mechanism at the rear, operated by handles on the steering wheel (there are no pedals). They do their job well - they stop the moped instantly. The only downside worth noting is that the rear brakes wear out quickly, they have to be tightened to the maximum and the worn out pads have to be regularly changed.

The Viper wind moped has a steel tubular frame. It is made in such a way that you do not need to throw your legs over the seats, they must be placed in front of you. The frame successfully combines low mass with high rigidity (bending, but not torsion). It has an open design, which makes it easy to repair.

Suspension

The Viper Wind has two strong rear struts and this is a big advantage - they work well. The front "feathers", unfortunately, are easily pierced, so the driver will feel the unevenness of the road well. The shaking is not critical, but it makes it difficult to ride a scooter for many hours.

Transmission

The motor and transmission in a scooter are combined into one unit, creating a kind of pendulum. The V-belt variator allows you to do without changing gears, which is very convenient - especially for beginners who choose a Wind scooter as their first vehicle.

Chassis

This modest Chinese scooter has high-quality wheels, which makes it possible to install tubeless tires. The wheels are durable, even with intensive use they last for 5-6 years. But not everything is so smooth - many Viper wind owners are not satisfied with the excessive hardness of the rubber, which can be solved by replacing it with more comfortable “donuts”.

Reviews

Motorcycle manufacturer Viper claims a maximum speed of its scooters of 115 km/h. In fact, judging by the reviews of the owners, this vehicle can only accelerate to 90 or 100 kilometers per hour. It has quite good characteristics in its price category. Among the shortcomings, users most often highlight the breakdown of individual parts and the use of plastic that is not of the best quality.

In addition, some people are not satisfied with this scooter in terms of design: in order to replace a part in the event of a breakdown, the driver needs to remove too many other elements. On some models the kickstarter does not work well, and there are also those in which the battery drains quickly.

However, judging by the reviews, the Viper-150 scooters have many good characteristics. They are maneuverable, economical and attractive in appearance. Another plus: motorcycles from Viper cost an order of magnitude lower than many analogues from other manufacturers. The tires on the wheels are installed with a diameter of thirteen inches, which allows you to use this motorcycle for trips outside the city. The main advantage of this motorcycle, according to most users, is the ability to avoid hours-long traffic jams. Viper-150 scooters are great for riding on the streets of big cities. This is facilitated by their maneuverability, which, combined with low fuel consumption and good handling, has made them popular.

Users leave especially many positive reviews about the Viper-Phantom models - the lightest version among the scooters from this manufacturer. Weighing only 103 kilograms, it has a fairly large load capacity, not inferior to its heavier counterparts.

For beginners, experienced owners of Viper motorcycles recommend checking the fastening of parts after purchase. Judging by the reviews, this is a very common problem for this manufacturer.

Our life consists of everyday little things that in one way or another affect our well-being, mood and productivity. I didn’t get enough sleep - my head hurts; I drank coffee to improve the situation and cheer myself up - I became irritable. I really want to foresee everything, but I just can’t. Moreover, everyone around, as usual, gives advice: gluten in bread - don’t go near it, it will kill you; A chocolate bar in your pocket is a direct path to tooth loss. We collect the most popular questions about health, nutrition, diseases and give answers to them that will allow you to better understand what is good for your health.

Maintenance and repair

The scooter will only work properly if used carefully and regularly maintained. For example, you need to change the engine oil at least 2 times a year (after driving 1000 km). The air filter in a scooter quickly becomes clogged, so once every 3-4 months it should be cleaned of dust, otherwise contamination will lead to a decrease in engine power and increased fuel consumption.

As for repairs, you should prepare - they will be required regularly. Viper Wind is a budget “Chinese”; for that kind of money it cannot have heavy-duty parts. The following repairs are most often required:

• Replacing the ignition coil - it may “fly off” already during the running-in of the scooter, but this is not a problem, since in this case it can be replaced free of charge under warranty.
• Replacing the variator belt . It almost always stretches or tears after traveling 4000-5000 km. To replace it, you can buy a Drive belt 669 x 18 JWBP, it costs about 600 rubles.
• Repair of a piston engine that cannot withstand driving in too hot weather in traffic jams. If you need to replace it, you can buy any piston assembly with a 13 mm pin - it costs 580-650 rubles.
• Replacing the battery , which, for example, is needed if the alarm is used too often (it eats up a lot of charge). Tip: Make a parking switch so you don't have to constantly climb and remove terminals.
• Replacing drives on the dashboard . On average, they burn out after a year of using a scooter. They are inexpensive - for example, a speedometer drive for a 12 mm axle can be bought for 200 rubles.
• Repairing the fuel tank . If you can’t put a patch on the holes, you can buy a whole one for 1,250 rubles. Please note that the tank is not equipped with a lid and sensor; they must be purchased separately.
• Replacement of optics and glass , which in Viper Wind are not particularly durable. You can buy a pair of orange “turns” for 500-600 rubles, “stop” glass for 230 rubles, a set of headlights – from 2200 rubles.

On the Chinese Viper Wind scooter, one of the main problems is the misalignment of the valve clearance settings. If the moped does not start completely, then the reason may be a burnt out exhaust valve. This unit constantly requires adjustment and checking, otherwise a progressive decrease in power will be observed.

You can adjust the valves yourself:

1. The plastic and cooling casing should be removed;
2. Unscrew the cylinder head;
3. To check the clearance, you need to set the piston to TDC;
4. Rotate the crankshaft until the two striped holes are parallel to the cylinder and the large hole is on top.
5. If everything is installed correctly, you will not be able to turn the valve rocker arm wrench - they will be stationary.
