The Celestial Empire provides moped models of many different classes and price categories, some of which are quite expensive. Their main values, which are a priority for the average Russian consumer, are an affordable low price, ergonomic, attractive and modern design that looks decent on any road.
This model, produced by Chongqing Bull Motorcycle And Engine Manufacture Co., Ltd from the People's Republic of China and which will be reviewed in this article, is one of the most notable representatives in its class available for free sale in the Russian Federation. And not in vain, because the moped, which has the ability to reach speeds of up to 105 kilometers per hour, has an engine capacity declared by the manufacturer of 110 cubic centimeters, a power of 8 horsepower, and a four-stroke engine, which allows movement without diluting combustible fuel with oil and is useful convenience for the driver of this vehicle. This provides an excellent opportunity for instant and responsive engine pickup and acceleration, which contributes to speed, ease and precise controllability when overtaking in urban conditions. An important attractive feature for the driver and the passenger he carries is safety during maneuvering both in the city and in rural areas, as well as off-road. Moreover, this device has a significant power reserve that allows you to do this. Thanks to the cooling produced by air, the wear resistance of the engine increases, and accordingly the parts located in the immediate vicinity of this unit due to sufficient and timely cooling. Also on this model, it is possible to transport quite large and heavy loads; the engine power is quite enough for this.
Appearance
The design of the Alpha 110 moped in question allows everyone to admire it; it’s rare that anyone doesn’t like its design, classic and at the same time modern. The interesting and intricate shape, reminiscent of a chrome-plated saxophone, given to the muffler by the manufacturer, attracts interested glances from pedestrians and drivers of other vehicles, besides, its bass sound pleases with its cheerful growl, while at the same time not straining the ears, like other models of this class. The foot rests have a chrome-plated shine, are very comfortable to use and have a pleasant appearance, adding to the overall appearance of the moped.
The instrument panel of a vehicle consists of a speedometer indicating the speed at which it is currently moving and various information indicator lights to provide useful information necessary for the driver, such as whether the low or high beam is currently on on the external lighting device of the vehicle, mode the current operation of the turn switch, as well as its performance in general, the neutral speed indicator, the rear brake indicator, as well as many other useful data that are of great importance for the safety and convenience of driving. Also on the dashboard there is an indispensable device for both professionals and beginners called a tachometer, which indicates the number of engine revolutions per second at the moment. At the bottom center of the instrument panel is the ignition switch, which is operated by the key.
On the Alpha 110 moped, in accordance with the traffic rules, there are two rear-view mirrors, which are quite convenient and allow the driver to control the situation behind the vehicle he is driving without turning his head.
Keeping up with competitors and other manufacturers in its class, the Alpha 110 moped is equipped with special brackets designed for ease of installation, the so-called trunk. The latter is installed above the rear fender of the moped wheel, serves as a kind of luggage compartment and at the same time can serve as a backrest for the convenience and safety of the passenger located behind the driver. There are also convenient side arches located in front of the driver’s feet, which are made of chrome-plated shiny metal, of fairly high quality and will help protect you when falling at low speed, while they themselves are not subject to severe deformation, even in a minor traffic accident, due to their strength and rational design developed by the manufacturer of this model.
How to check the scooter generator for serviceability
A failed generator blocks the operation of the entire scooter as a whole, since the entire scooter system is somehow connected to it. If there is a breakdown in the electrical system, a weak spark, or a poor battery charge, in addition to other equipment, a breakdown of the generator cannot be ruled out.
There are not many breakdowns in this case, these are:
- wire break (for example, due to wire breakage or fumes),
- short circuit ,
- significant reduction in the magnetization of the generator rotor.
Let's consider each of the points in more detail. For example, let’s take one of the Chinese scooters, since it is these devices that are most often subject to such breakdowns. What causes the rotor magnetization to decrease? This phenomenon can be observed due to an impact (for example, during a fall) or being near elements of a high magnetic field. As a result, the output current of the generator drops significantly during operation, and normal operation of the scooter is impossible.
Design features
As usual, for this class of vehicles, the Alpha 110 moped has a two-wheeled design. A thick frame made of good metal gives the moped an impressive appearance and serves as a solid basis for attaching all the parts necessary for comfortable movement. With a four-stroke power unit with a volume of 110 cubic centimeters. The engine is started using an electric starter; if for some reason this is not possible, the Alpha 110 moped can easily be started using the so-called kick starter, that is, as they say, “with a kick.” The transmission of torque to the rear wheel from the power unit is carried out not by a cardan shaft, but by a chain rod. The manual gearbox has 4 speeds, which allows you to choose the most appropriate speed at the moment, effectively using the power of the power unit, which is a significant factor for driving comfort. The reverse gear mode is not provided by the manufacturer, however, like other models of this class produced by competitors. On a moped with an engine with a power of 7 horsepower, significant for this class, an impressive 8 and a half liters can be filled into the gasoline tank for filling fuel fluid. Considering that the fuel consumption declared by the manufacturer is only 2 liters per 100 kilometers, by filling the tank to capacity, the driver will be able to drive about 425 kilometers without refueling, significantly saving his money.
With a length of 1840 millimeters, a width of slightly more than half a meter, the height of the moped is 1025 millimeters. With these rather respectable dimensions, its weight is eighty-five kilograms, which is quite light in weight compared to similar models of this class produced by other Chinese companies.
This model has proven and reliable brakes with a drum design, which are activated by pressing a special lever on the steering handle or pressing the pedal located to the right of the driver’s foot.
The tires have sizes 2.50 and 2.75 and are on 17-inch wheels; with the same diameter, the width of the rear wheel is slightly wider. It must be said that in the reviews there are many complaints about the tires on this model; this is due to the rapid wear of the tread. Apparently, the tire manufacturer uses insufficiently hard rubber in their production.
The model of the Alpha 110 moped in question is specially adapted by the manufacturer for use on our not very good roads, therefore it has at its disposal a rather soft, but at the same time quite durable suspension, which consists of a telescopic front fork and a pendulum rear fork, equipped with two oil-filled shock absorbers. This suspension makes driving comfortable even in rural areas and complete off-road conditions.
To summarize, we can emphasize the excellent modern appearance, comfortable suspension, comfortable seating for the driver and passenger, durable power unit along with a well-chosen gearbox. Thus, in terms of price and quality ratio, the Alpha 110 moped is worthy competition among models of a similar class provided by other manufacturers.
The Alpha Sabur moped is an inexpensive Chinese scooter, which was produced in two modifications. The first involved the installation of a 50 cubic centimeter engine. The second is a 110cc power plant. The latest model has gained the greatest popularity among owners of two-wheeled vehicles.
The Sabur moped is a kind of mini-bike that is equipped with a gearbox and a four-stroke engine. Such features, combined with low weight, make it possible to provide excellent driving characteristics.
How to check the generator on a scooter?
The scooter generator is one of the most important parts of the scooter; its malfunction means that it is impossible to continue moving; a spark simply will not appear. But if you doubt whether your generator is working or the reason for the malfunction of the scooter is in another part, it is strongly advised to check the generator. Many people don’t know how to check the generator on a 4t scooter, because this relates more to electrics, which scooterists hardly understand. Also, the verification problem will be in the absence of the main tool - a multimeter tester. Experts identify several reasons for generator failure:
- short circuit formation;
- mechanical failure or wire breakage;
- significant reduction in rotor magnetization.
Before checking the generator for serviceability, we will consider the main faults. Practice shows that the generator breaks down most often on Chinese scooters, where the most common failure is the rotor losing its magnetization. The rotor often loses magnetization precisely because the scooter falls, that is, there is a direct impact. Also, if there is a nearby magnetic field, the rotor discharges.
To check the charge on the generator, you will need to use a proven method; the main task is to find out the output voltage. First of all, completely disconnect the generator from the scooter, then use the control device and start the engine. After starting, you can check the output voltage; the working generator should show at least 5V with the engine running.
The second stage is checking the output voltage of the switch; for this you will need a multimeter. The testing process begins by connecting the commutator to the generator stator, this is done using wires from both parts. Then you need to disconnect the wire related to the switch block from the ignition coil winding terminal. The next step is to connect two terminals - one goes to the engine ground, the second to the main wire on the ignition coil. This main wire is connected to the commutator.
After this, you will have to set the voltmeter to the main “direct current” mode and crank the engine with the kickstarter. By these actions we can find out the output voltage of the switch to the ignition coil. Then connect the switch wire to the coil. Under normal conditions, the output voltage of the scooter should be 200 V. For many, such a test may seem too complicated, because most of the terms are unfamiliar, and not everyone can use a multimeter, but if you really want, you can try and check the generator on a Chinese scooter.
Using a multimeter, you can find out the presence of voltage and its indicators, so you will have to start the procedure by removing some parts of the plastic located in the engine area. On the scooter you will have to find a large bundle of wires, which is located on the engines. Find the wire that should connect to the generator. The next stage is to measure the parameters of the circuit, the main task of which is to power the generator coil with electricity. Important: before this test you will have to disconnect the wiring from the generator, after which you can check the resistance. In normal operating condition, the generator should produce a resistance of 80 to 150 ohms. Deviation from the norm indicates a malfunction of the generator and the need to replace it. In some cases, the presence of incorrect resistance lies in the wiring, which is faulty. This can be determined by removing the generator and checking the coil resistance separately; if it gives optimal data, the reason is in the wires, in particular their short circuits.
Detecting the above faults is not an easy task; most scooter owners are not able to check the generator for serviceability, which is why they turn to specialists. If you have the financial means, it’s easier to buy a new generator, so you decide how to solve this problem yourself.

- Unscrew the two nuts on the head - upper and lower (use a 17mm wrench);
- 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;
- Check that the piston is at top dead center along the pusher on the intake valve;
- Unscrew the nut on the upper valve and set the gap to 0.05 using a feeler gauge;
- The gap on the lower valve is set to 0.1;
- After adjustment, you need to screw all the caps in the reverse order.
How to check PP with a multimeter on a moped?
The relay regulator on a Chinese scooter is checked using a multimeter with a voltmeter function. For this purpose, a simple DT-830 (or equivalent) is usually used. It is better to carry out diagnostics and measurement of output voltage with the device removed.
Verification algorithm:
- You need to unscrew the fairing with the central phase and find on the frame a device with 4 wires: red, green, yellow and white.
- Then start the scooter and check the voltage at idle: measure it between the green and red wires, setting the multimeter to the maximum value of 20 V.
- If the multimeter display shows a figure of 14.6-14.8 V, this is normal. For stabilizers on Chinese mopeds, this is the operating standard voltage. If at idle the multimeter shows a value of 15-16 V, this is a high voltage indicator. This indicates a malfunction of the relay regulator.
- Then you need to check the voltage supplied to the lighting lamps. An alternating voltage is supplied to the central low beam (high beam) lamp, so the multimeter should be switched to the alternating current measurement mode with a parameter of 20 V.
- Next, we measure the voltage between the green and yellow wires (green is the general electrical network of the moped). If the multimeter shows a network voltage of up to 12 V, then the electrical appliances are operating without additional load.
- If at idle this value is 16 V or higher, and with a sharp increase in engine speed it jumps to 25 V, the device does not stabilize the voltage and, therefore, does not work. With such readings, the device must be replaced with a new one.
Using a multimeter, the relay regulator is checked on a Chinese scooter. On 4T scooters, the relay regulator is checked using a tester.
Typically a mechanical tester is used for these purposes, although there are also electronic models. In order to take a measurement, you need:
- switch the device to the “KiloOhm” mode and remove the regulator;
- then place the probes on the first pair of terminals (AB). The tester should show a value of no more than 18 kOhm;
- after that, we change the position of the probes on the terminals in the opposite direction (VA) and measure the voltage again - the arrow on the device should show 0;
- then we install the probes on the next pair of terminals (SD) and measure the readings on this pair;
- swap the probes (DS) and measure the indicator again;
- the remaining measurements have no contact and are not checked. The indicator when checking them should be zero.
In this way, regulators are tested on popular Japanese models with small engine volumes from brands such as Honda (Leard, Dio, Tact), Suzuki, Yamaha.
Replacing a faulty relay regulator on a scooter is not difficult.
Where to buy and how much it costs
You can buy a Sabur 110 scooter new or used. The price of a used moped ranges from $200 to $400. A new one will cost 550 conventional units. Official stores provide a 1-year warranty, sell equipment in installments and deliver throughout the Russian Federation.
In Ukraine, the price of a scooter is no different. Loans for motorcycles are issued by popular banking institutions, and transportation is carried out by transport companies (Novaya Poshta, Intime and others).
Sales in Belarus through stores. The cost of a used Sabur SB model released in 2009 with a mileage of 6000 km is 1160 Belarusian rubles. A new moped with a 72 cc engine will cost about 1,600 rubles. with the possibility of installments.

The new Alpha 110 cc mopeds are equipped with a four-stroke single-cylinder gasoline unit. Its power is 3 kW (5 hp). The Alpha 110cc moped engine is capable of providing acceptable acceleration and traction characteristics (0-100 km/h: ~ 15 seconds, load capacity: 120 kg).
One cylinder can withstand loads of up to 7500 rpm. The 4-speed manual transmission ensures smooth acceleration. Despite the engine size, fuel consumption is only 2 liters per 100 km.
You can start the moped in one of two ways:
- Classic kick pedal.
- Electric starter.
The suspension is designed for use in areas with a lot of bumps. The rear wheel differs from the front in having a wider tire (2.75 inches versus 2.50 inches). The brake system consists of two drums, each of which is located in the central part of each of the wheels. It is impossible to separate the discs from the hubs, since the wheel does not have removable spokes.
Engine Alpha 72 cc
Let's start, first of all, with the heart of any technology, its engine. The engine on the Alpha 72cc is four-stroke, which is already an advantage, and its cooling occurs by getting air onto the surface or, in other words, by air. As for the engine capacity that the Alpha moped can “boast” of, it is, as the name suggests, 72 cubic meters. cm. Despite such a small volume, this model develops enormous speed and incredible power . In a process involving repairs aimed at modernizing the power unit, it is possible to significantly add power.
If we convert the standard power that the Alpha moped can pull into hp, it will be 5 horses. And its maximum speed does not exceed 7.5-8 thousand rpm.
This engine starts with an electric starter, but there is another option. Manufacturers made sure that the user was able to start the Alpha 72 cc even if the starter was damaged. For this purpose, there is a kick starter, which makes it possible to start it manually.
The transmission of the Alfa 72 cc is 4-speed and manual. She sets it in motion without much difficulty.
Spare parts
The manufacturer's official dealer networks are represented in almost every region of the country. For example, the price of a power plant is only 150-200 dollars
. Spare parts can be purchased.
In the post-Soviet space, a moped is one of the most popular types of vehicles - primarily due to the fact that such transport has a low cost, and, moreover, it is economical. Since the popularity of mopeds has lasted for several generations, today on the streets of Russian and Ukrainian cities you can still see the old “Riga” and “Verkhovyna”, which were produced back in the days of the Soviet Union - surprisingly, they continue to function properly.
But today we will not talk about these old units, but about one of the most prominent representatives of Chinese motorcycle technology - the Alpha 110 moped. This device is an excellent example of how excellent technical characteristics and reasonable cost can be combined in one motorcycle.
The Alpha 110 moped can be used both for riding on city streets and for long trips in the countryside.
Exterior
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;
— Many components that were made of high quality metal.
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.
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.

In addition, the scooter is practical, capable of transporting more than 100 kilograms of cargo or an adult passenger. Considering the affordable price of the equipment, we can say that the model considered is one of the best in its class presented on the domestic market.
On the topic: Horizontal system unit. Review of relevant models
Engine
110 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 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.
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.
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.

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;
— Lack of forced engine cooling;
— Low quality drum brakes;
— Manual transmission – being 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.
How to check the generator on an alpha moped with a multimeter
Checking a scooter's generator is a fairly important and sometimes necessary procedure for every owner of this two-wheeled vehicle. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to establish its functionality, especially if you do not have deep knowledge in the field of electrical engineering, as well as the necessary tool - a multimeter tester . If you have such a tool, then before checking the generator you will need to familiarize yourself with the concepts of alternating and direct current, voltage, electrical impulse and tester indicators.
To check the generator on a scooter, you need to remove the plastic around the engine, and then measure the indicators - first of all, the voltage . You need to remove the casing as carefully as possible, otherwise you will damage the fastening system.
Find the place where the bundle of wires comes out of the engine and move along it to the connector - the place where the generator is connected to the scooter’s on-board network. Then you will need to measure the resistance of the circuit that powers the generator coil. Disconnect the wiring from the generator and measure the resistance of the connector wires. In theory, the resistance in the coil should be from 80 to 150 Ohms. If during measurement deviations from these values are found, you should not immediately think about a malfunction.
Try removing the generator from the scooter and measuring the resistance of the coil itself by connecting the tester directly to it. When taking readings from the coil, carefully inspect the condition of its terminals - damage that leads to a decrease in resistance may be the cause.
If during diagnostics you find out that the coil resistance readings are within the normal range, then the cause of the malfunction most likely lies in the wires themselves, coming from the coil or at the output points. Check the wiring and make sure there are no shorts in the wires.
