Technical characteristics of the Alpha RX 110 moped

Repair and tuning

Thanks to its design simplicity, Motoland Alpha RX is highly reliable and maintainable. There are plenty of spare parts in stores and on Aliexpress, and they are very cheap. It is often cheaper to buy a new part to replace a broken one than to repair an old one.

Repair

For complete repair and maintenance of the Alpha PX, a standard suitcase with tools is enough. You can disassemble and reassemble the bike in a day, if you don’t get distracted. This is one of its advantages - no matter what is broken in it, it can be repaired or replaced without problems.

Spare parts

The cost of consumables and spare parts for the Alpha RX remains low, and everything you need is usually in stock at most motorcycle stores. In most cases, there is no point in contacting motorcycle services, because thanks to the elementary design of the bike, it is not difficult to carry out all the required operations on your own.

Tuning

Already from the factory, the bike is equipped with everything necessary, including roll bars and a trunk. Owners often change the mirrors (due to the short legs of the standard mirrors, it is difficult to adjust them so that you can see something other than your shoulders), install a central trunk and change the turn signals, because the standard ones are not reliable.

Story

At the end of the 1920s, during the global crisis, the need for cheap and economical vehicles increased in Europe. By that time, motorcycles and heavy and technically complex two-wheeled vehicles were already being mass-produced. Many inventors could not resist the temptation to install a compact gasoline engine of a simplified design, without a gearbox, on bicycles.

The German companies ILO and Fichtel und Sachs were among the first to begin mass production of velomotors and motorbikes. Already at the end of the 1930s, in Germany there were dozens of manufacturers of auxiliary bicycle motors with a displacement of 60, 74, 98 cc. see for bicycles of various designs.

After World War II, the production of motorbikes as an inexpensive means of transportation also increased. Engine designs were also improved; compact engines appeared with a pedal drive built into the crankcase and a gearbox with two gears. Some manufacturers created special bicycles with reinforced frames, shock-absorbing front forks, and equipped them with improved brakes and larger tires.

Therefore, in the countries of Western Europe, there was a need to legislatively bring the technical requirements for this type of light motor vehicles, and clearly separate them from motorcycles. In particular, in Germany (FRG), from January 1, 1953, it was determined by the traffic rules that motorbikes can be equipped with an engine with a displacement of up to 50 cubic meters. cm, and weigh up to 33 kg.

The name of a motorized bicycle, or a bicycle with an auxiliary engine, was difficult, so a competition was announced for a new name for this class of motorized transport. In 1953, at the international exhibition of bicycle and motor vehicles IFMA, the winner was named - it was the Swedish version: “Moped”

, which combined the words "Motor"

and
"Pedal"
. It was at that time that the German company Kreidler released the K-50 motorbike with a two-speed engine and built-in bicycle pedals, which served primarily to start the engine (as well as an auxiliary drive when riding uphill) and weighing 33 kg, which fully complied with the requirements of the new rules. Thus, technical requirements and traffic rules for the class of mopeds were developed, known in the history of road traffic as the “Lex Kreidler” reform.

In the Soviet Union, the first moped Riga-1 was released in 1961, it was a copy of the Czechoslovak Jawa moped, which in turn was created on German models. In 1967, the Lvov Motorcycle Plant began mass production of MP-043 mopeds with a two-speed engine, which became the basis for the creation of a series of popular Verkhovyna mopeds.

Technical characteristics of the Alpha 110cc moped

The advantages of the Alpha 110 moped also include excellent technical characteristics. One could even say that it is thanks to them that the Alpha 110 is one of the most prominent representatives of Chinese motorcycle technology.

Among the distinctive features of the technical part of this moped are:

— Alloy wheels and tachometer included in the package;

— Transmission operating in four stages;

— Productivity of 8500 revolutions per minute;

— Located at the rear and located at the front (drum) brakes;

— Seven horsepower;

— Front-mounted hydraulic shock absorbers;

— Maximum cargo weight of 120 kg;

— Rear-mounted spring shock absorbers;

— The weight of the motorcycle is 81 kg.

Other options

While generator power is key, there are other important parameters to consider:

Fuel type

• Gasoline generators are compact and simple. They have a convenient control system and are able to operate at low air temperatures. Such units are most often used as an emergency source of electricity since they are not capable of operating in non-stop mode.
• Massive DGS (diesel generator sets) are very popular in the Russian energy market. They have a long service life, stable operating parameters and a long operational period. With their help, you can create a basic power supply system.
• Gas generators operate almost silently and consume fuel economically. Another advantage of stations of this type is the ability to connect directly to the city gas main, which eliminates the need to constantly refill cylinders or tanks.
• Voltage. There are units that are used in single-phase household networks with a voltage of 220V and industrial devices where the voltage can be switched from 220V to 380V.

Startup type

• Manual. The simplest and most reliable starter. The power plant is turned on through the use of physical force.
• Electric. A more convenient and expensive system that allows you to turn on the unit by pressing one button. It is also possible to use a remote control or computer control;
• You can also purchase a diesel electric generator with a pre-installed automatic reserve input unit. This is a special device that is designed to automatically launch an emergency station in the event of interruptions or disconnection of the city network. The AVR unit allows you to transfer the facility's power system to a completely autonomous mode.

This is useful when the building has equipment that requires a non-stop supply of electricity, such as video surveillance systems, freezers, computerized controls, electric ovens, etc. Quite often, electric generators with automatic reserve units are installed in combination with large uninterruptible power supplies, which support the operation of equipment at the facility during the automatic start of the station engine.

Execution

• Open. These are standard installations that have the best price. In most cases, they are installed in special technical rooms with a heating system, exhaust system and sound insulation. Open stations are easy to maintain.
• In a casing. Units with low engine noise. They are also protected from moisture and dust, which allows generators to be placed outdoors.
• In a container. The durable metal case allows you to place the equipment in difficult weather and climatic zones and guarantees protection from mechanical influences.

Recently, inverter-type power plants have begun to be in great demand. They have a low noise level and consume fuel economically compared to similar equipment. The main advantage of inverter installations is the high stability of operating parameters, which is achieved by converting current from direct to alternating current. Inverter stations also have disadvantages, for example, they are more expensive than similar equipment of the standard type, in addition, almost all devices have strict power limitations.

All models

Welding generators are often used for field work. These are special units that combine the function of a welding machine and an autonomous source of electrical energy. Using equipment of this type is much more convenient, safer and more economical than a separate fuel-powered electric generator and welding machine.

Rated and maximum power

All equipment that is designed to generate electrical energy has nominal and maximum indicators:

• Nominal is an indicator at which the generator can operate in standard mode for a long time without harm to its operating life and protection system;
• Operating at maximum efficiency causes the station to overheat, so the device can only operate in this mode for a short period of time.

If you calculate that to simultaneously power the household appliances you need, you will need a 4 kW electric generator, then its maximum power will be 4.4 kW. Sometimes there are cases when manufacturers indicate only maximum values ​​on the generator; we recommend that you refuse to purchase this model of equipment, since in most cases this product turns out to be of poor quality.

It is advisable to always purchase power stations from well-known world brands, which indicate both the maximum and nominal parameters; in addition, many manufacturers also indicate the operating efficiency coefficient for independent calculation.

Service Features

Unfortunately, suppliers of motorcycle equipment do not always take into account the specific features of a particular type of vehicle, assuming that low price is more important. In particular, the majority of mopeds supplied to Russia under the ALPHA brand are not designed for our climatic and road conditions.

This manifests itself in the following:

1. Most mopeds are used off-road (in rural areas, for trips to nature, fishing, etc.). And factory tires, alloy rims, springs and shock absorbers are not designed for such loads;
2. The quality of gasoline and oil is also far from ideal, which affects the performance parameters of the moped;
3. The moped is not intended for operation at sub-zero temperatures.

In the same way as wiring for an Alpha moped, other “diseases” of Alpha mopeds can be cured with the help of replacement. In particular:

1. Factory tires are replaced with more wear-resistant ones;
2. Alloy wheels are replaced by traditional spoked rims;
3. Shock absorbers are reinstalled from domestic motorcycles.

Peculiarities

The equipment in question is equipped with front shock absorbers with hydraulics. The compact gas tank holds a volume of fuel that is enough for more than 200 kilometers. The moped “eats” AI-92/95 fuel. Decent carrying capacity allows you to transport one adult passenger.

The design of the unit is beautiful and original. For example, the muffler is made in the shape of a saxophone and transforms the pleasant sound of the engine. Chrome footrests complement the overall exterior, and the dashboard is equipped with various instruments and gauges, including indicators for turn signals, low beam and high beam. Rear view mirrors provide additional safety.

Characteristics

The Alpha 110 motorcycle can be used both for riding on city streets and for long trips in the countryside.

Alpha. 2022 model

The latest Alpha model, which left the factory in 2022, received a number of updates:

• a quieter muffler, although many “alfists” for some reason, on the contrary, try to give the muffler more roaring sound;
• higher quality, grippy rubber;
• the updated speedometer-tachometer panel is a real gift for mopedists, since the design of the double aluminum can is already pretty boring;
• more contrasting colors of the motorcycle;
• Availability of new generation safety bars.

Officially, Alpha 110 belongs to scooters. But despite this, its appearance is more suitable for a motorcycle. Among the distinctive design features of the Alpha 110 moped are:

• Large wheels;
• Large front fork;
• Rear view mirrors;
• Lots of components that were made from high quality metal.

Disputes about the quality of the metal from which these motorcycles are assembled continue forever. However, if you regularly service the moped, then the metal is really quite reliable.

You should understand! Our people, unlike foreign drivers, have this trait - the more expensive the equipment, the more careful they are with it. Due to the fact that Alfa is a budget motorcycle, it is driven through pits, puddles, and sand. If this motorcycle received even half the attention that Japanese bikes receive, it would last for many seasons and even for long trips.

Also among the distinctive features of this scooter are its rather large dimensions and representative appearance. You can also remember the pleasant bonuses - elegant stands designed to place your feet, and a muffler made in the shape of a saxophone. By the way, the muffler produces a rather pleasant melodic sound.

Among the interesting features are special light bulbs located on the instrument panel - their task is to inform the driver that the low or high beam is on, as well as the direction indicator that is currently functioning.

In order to provide the driver with a safe ride that is not devoid of comfort, the moped has a convenient space for panniers and side bars made from high-quality metal pipes - thanks to them, the side bars do not deform even in the event of an accident or fall.

Appearance of Alpha RX

Alpha RX is an updated version of the previous classic moped. The new moped has become more interesting and elegant in appearance. The exterior has a modern look which I liked. The tank has been updated, a two-level seat has been installed - the passenger is now slightly higher than the driver. The passenger's visibility is now better. The wings are now made of plastic, but only the front wing is painted. This already saves the wings from corrosion.

The headlight became larger than that of the classic Alpha, a serious halogen lamp was installed, and the light became brighter. The rear shock absorbers have become more advanced in shape. The motorcycle is also equipped with serious lighting equipment - front and rear lights, turn signals with sound, high and low beams, a signal and a brake light.

Very easy to use. Repair is possible with a minimum set of tools, but you will have to stock up on additional open-end wrenches: 9, 11 and 15.

It comes in two versions for sale: with a 72 cc and 110 cc engine. But lately they have been supplied partially unserviceable with a 50cc piston that will need to be upgraded. These versions of the models are called Alpha 7 and Alpha 11.

These numbers are deciphered as follows:

• 7 is an Alpha, which after modification will become a 72 cc model.
• 11 is the Alpha, which will become a 110 cc model.

Initially, these models cost like “fifty dollars” and they will not be able to drive. In any case, they will have to be modified. But according to the documents, they are like mopeds with 49.9 cubic meters and there is no need to register them with the traffic police. The only thing you need is a driver's license of any category.

Engine

The Alpha 110 moped has a four-stroke engine. The volume of such a motor is 110 cubic centimeters, and it is cooled by air. By the way, this engine has one interesting distinctive feature - despite not having the largest volume, it is capable of developing a high level of performance.

In addition, the electric starter is launched using this motor. Moreover, in the event of a breakdown of the electric starter, the driver can always switch to the kickstarter.

Fuel tank

It is worth recognizing that the volume of the fuel tank of the Alpha 110 moped is not very large - the maximum amount of fuel it can hold is four liters. At the same time, due to the fact that the maximum gasoline consumption per 100 kilometers is two liters, the fuel tank can be characterized as an economical solution by the manufacturer. This fuel tank can only be filled with gasoline of the AI-92 or AI-95 series.

Motorcycle "Alpha-125"

For comparison, let’s look at the main parameters of a moped with a 125 cc engine:

• power plant - four-stroke gasoline engine with a volume of 125 cc. cm;
• power indicator - eight horsepower;
• cooling – atmospheric type;
• fuel consumption per 100 kilometers – 1.8 liters;
• Gear shift – mechanical type box;
• transmission - chain;
• brakes - drum;
• maximum speed – one hundred kilometers per hour;
• weight - eighty kilograms.

The moped is equipped with a place for a trunk, located behind the driver and serving as a reliable backrest for the passenger. Safety is ensured by standard side bars, which are made of metal pipes; if they fall, they do not deform and protect riders from critical injuries.

1. Unscrew the plastic cover on the engine;
2. Remove the top cover;
3. Unscrew the two nuts on the head - upper and lower (use a 17mm wrench);
4. Use the socket on the crank to turn the crankshaft through the hole after the plastic cover until the mark (T) appears in the upper window;
5. Check that the piston is at top dead center along the pusher on the intake valve;
6. Unscrew the nut on the upper valve and set the gap to 0.05 using a feeler gauge;
7. The gap on the lower valve is set to 0.1;
8. After adjustment, you need to screw all the caps in the reverse order.

Specifications

This Chinese two-wheeler has very decent performance for its category. Among them, I would like to especially highlight the presence of a tachometer and alloy wheels as standard. The Alpha moped (110 cc) is equipped with a four-speed transmission and a fairly impressive speed of 8500 rotations per minute. The brake type of this Chinese motorcycle is front and rear drums. The engine of the Alpha moped (110 cubic meters) has a power of seven horsepower. It has hydraulic spring front and rear shock absorbers. The maximum load capacity of this Chinese mokik is up to one hundred and twenty kilograms, with the weight of the device itself being 81 kg.

Users especially like the efficiency of this vehicle: per hundred kilometers it consumes only two liters of fuel with a gas tank capacity of 4 liters. Its overall dimensions are impressive: for the Alpha moped (110 cubic meters) it is as follows: length - 1.84, width - 0.52, and height - 1.02 meters. The tires of this Chinese motorcycle are 2.5/2.75, mounted on seventeen-inch wheels.

Modifications

Alpha motorcycles have several variations, which differ mainly in power and engine size. There are modifications with a sports body kit that look more aggressive, but have characteristics similar to the standard versions.

Types of mopeds:

1. SP-110 C and MT-110/2 (110 cubic centimeters).
2. MT-49 QT with a fifty-cc engine.
3. Option with a power unit volume of 72 cubic meters. cm.
4. One hundred twenty-five cubic centimeter model.

Flaws

Like any motorcycle or moped, the Alpha 110 has its drawbacks. However, if you compare these disadvantages with the above advantages, they seem insignificant.

Fans of high-speed travel on city streets noted the following disadvantages of the moped:

• The steering wheel is too wide (however, it can be easily corrected by replacing the steering wheel from the Carpathians or Verkhovyna);
• Lack of forced engine cooling;
• Low quality drum brakes (there are Alfa modifications with front disc brakes);
• Manual transmission – when in a city traffic jam, changing gears can cause certain difficulties.

Despite the fact that during the trip there is excellent traction between the wheels and the asphalt, due to the low-quality drum brakes it is difficult to predict how the motorcycle will behave on the track in dry weather conditions. Thus, the disadvantages also include a long braking distance.

Based on the excellent technical characteristics and numerous advantages, we can absolutely say that the Alpha 110 is recommended to all fans of high-quality motorcycle equipment. Due to its rather soft, but at the same time confident ride, reliability and controllability, the moped is excellent for traveling in suburban areas. The presence of a manual gearbox in the moped allows the motor to develop impressive speeds. Large wheels, delicate suspension and a wide steering wheel ensure safe movement off-road, located among dacha plots.

It is worth noting that the Alpha 110 can be seen on sale much more often than other more expensive and sophisticated motorcycles - this is primarily due to its affordable price. If we talk about how long this moped can work before it breaks, then we can definitely say that in case of timely repairs and careful handling, the service life will be several years.

Technical characteristics of Alpha RX

The Motoland Alpha X Er 110 can be described very simply - it is no more complicated than any Soviet Voskhod, and from a design point of view it differs only slightly from it. Tubular steel frame, air-cooled engine, carburetor, minimal electronics. The Alpha moped is built using advanced technologies from 40 years ago, and this plays into its hands - the simpler it is, the more reliable it is.

Engine

The Alpha moped engine produces 9 hp, and the bike is capable of reaching a maximum speed of 75 km/h. The acceleration dynamics can hardly be called vigorous, but it would be unreasonable to expect it from such technology. The cooling, as mentioned above, is air, the engine type is 4T, and it consumes any gasoline, so you can safely fill the tank with AI-92. Chinese engineers even provided a kickstarter to start a 110 cc engine. see with its help it is not difficult. Its technical characteristics are not enough stars from the sky, but they are enough for more or less comfortable movement.

Transmission

Extremely simple 4-speed gearbox. The clutch is released easily, gears shift smoothly, and owners do not complain about problems with the transmission. The box works hard, but it is very reliable.

Chassis and brakes

In order to reduce the cost of production, the Chinese equipped the bike with the simplest possible chassis. There is a standard telescopic fork installed at the front, and two shock absorbers at the rear. The maximum permissible load is 150 kg, but under a tall biker weighing about a hundred, the moped immediately sags noticeably. And the load negatively affects the length of the braking distance, which is already significant - the brakes on the Alpha RX are the most primitive, drum ones.

Electronics

Any novice motorcyclist can figure out how to wire a bike. It is extremely simple, there is nothing more complicated than an electric starter. After purchase, it is recommended to check the wires and connectors, since the factory insulation can be of poor quality, and it is better to eliminate possible shortcomings before problems arise

Weight and dimensions

Motoland Alpha RX weighs only 80 kg, and subjectively it seems even lighter. Thanks to its compact dimensions, it is very easy to handle, and its modest seat height allows the vast majority of motorcyclists to confidently reach the ground. The low dry weight partly compensates for the mediocre performance of the engine, which does not have to pull a massive motorcycle.

Controllability

This bike was created to be a universal means of transportation for all occasions. In China, the Alpha RX is incredibly popular due to its affordable price and suitability for both urban and rural areas. It handles incredibly easily, despite the weak suspension and insufficiently effective brakes. In the city and on the highway it lacks dynamics, but the moped is excellent for country roads, and the impressive size of the wheels allows you not to be afraid of uneven primers with ruts.

Fuel consumption

The volume of the Alpha RX fuel tank is only 7 liters, but this is enough, considering that fuel consumption per 100 km does not exceed 3 liters. The bike easily digests any gasoline, so the AI-92 will be just right for it. If somewhere in a remote province there is an AI-80, you can safely fill it up too - the Chinese moped doesn’t care, it is capable of driving on any gasoline.

Detailed description

You can buy a Motoland Alpha px 50 moped in the official MotoLand store. Here you can purchase equipment, consumables and spare parts for your motorcycle.

Advantages of the model

First of all, it is worth noting that some characteristics of the Alpha 110 moped exceed the distinctive features of two-seater mopeds. For example, this motorcycle is equipped with a comfortable seat for a passenger and a capacious trunk. The seat itself is quite comfortable, and, moreover, even two adult men can fit on it. There have been cases when this moped carried three people. This is unsafe and should never be done, but the fact remains.

The Alpha moped climbs any hill without any problems

Also among the advantages of the moped is that you can make steep climbs on it without much difficulty - this is possible thanks to the four-speed gearbox. An experienced driver is quite capable of achieving maximum performance from a moped engine.

It is also worth noting the electric starter, which in case of unexpected unpleasant situations on the road allows you to start the moped - it is quite high quality.

The main advantages of a moped also include an increased level of comfort while moving. Thanks to this, the driver is able to make even particularly long trips. If we talk about the driver's seat itself, its seating position is quite high and comfortable, and the footrests are located exactly where needed. The steering wheel has a delicate smooth bend.

It is worth talking separately about the dashboard - it is quite informative, and due to the large size of the speedometer and tachometer, a quick reading of their indicators is possible even during bad weather conditions.

Advantages of the model

Some characteristics of this Chinese model are in many ways superior to those of two-seater mopeds. Thus, the Alpha moped is equipped with an ergonomic passenger seat and a spacious trunk. The seat is extremely comfortable and even two adult men can fit on it.

Another advantage of the Chinese model is that it makes even steep climbs relatively easily and confidently. Thanks to the 4-speed gearbox, a skilled driver can get the most out of the powerful engine.

The electric starter, with which you can start the moped in case of force majeure, is of high quality.

Comfortable travel on an Alpha moped

One of the main advantages of the model is the comfort of movement. This allows you to travel even over long distances. The seating position is quite comfortable and high, the footrests are where they should be, and the steering wheel has the correct smooth curve.

The dashboard is very informative. The large size of the tachometer and speedometer allows you to quickly read the indicators in any weather conditions.

Total

You should consider Irbis Virago if you want “cheap and cheerful”. All this moped will do for its modest price is transport its owner. Yes, not too quickly and not particularly comfortable, but it will do it, and with normal attitude towards it and timely maintenance, without any breakdowns. This is not the merit of Chinese defectors, it is the merit of the design - the Irbis Virago 110 is so simple that it is quite reliable for this reason alone. Well, the rest is nothing special.

Specifications

More details about the motor

The Alpha motorcycle, the photo of which is available above, is equipped with a reliable and unpretentious engine. The motor design was developed by Japanese specialists. Even in a simplified version, using cheaper components, the power plant type 139 FMB functions reliably and is balanced with its associated components.

This engine has the power of five horses and a maximum speed of 7,500 revolutions per minute. However, a well-thought-out transmission system allows it to cope with the intended loads without any problems.

Alpha motorcycles are equipped with a motor whose design is not complicated. The cylinder head includes intake and exhaust valves, the operation of which is ensured by the timing sprocket. The rotation of this element occurs in synchronous interaction with the magneto through a chain transmission.

On the left side of the internal combustion engine there is a foot-operated gear shift lever, which is aggregated with transmission gears mounted in the engine crankcase on a pair of parallel shafts. On the right side of the engine there is a clutch unit, which is controlled from the left steering handle; the oil pump is placed under the crankshaft and is driven by the timing chain.
