Thumpstar Service Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

WARNING: Indicates a strong possibility of severe personal injury or death if instructions are not followed. CAUTION: Indicates a possibility of equipment damage if instructions are not followed. NOTE: Gives helpful information.

Detailed descriptions of standard workshop procedures, safety principles, and service operations are not included. It is important to note that this manual contains some warnings and cautions against some specific service methods which could cause PERSONAL INJURY to service personnel or could damage a vehicle or render it unsafe. Please understand that those warnings could not cover all conceivable ways in which service whether or not recommended by manufacturer might be done, or of the possibly hazardous consequences of each conceivable way, nor could a manufacturer investigate all such ways. Anyone using service procedures or tools, whether or not recommended by the manufacturer, must satisfy himself thoroughly that neither personal safety nor vehicle safety will be jeopardized by the service methods or tools selected.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

This service manual describes the service procedures for the Thumpstar Off Road Range.

Follow the Maintenance Schedule (Section 3) recommendations to ensure that the vehicle is in peak operation condition and the emission levels are within the standards set by the California Air Resources Board.

Performing the first scheduled maintenance is very important. It compensates for the initial wear that occurs during the break-in period.

Sections 1 and 3 apply to the whole motorcycle. Section 2 illustrates what may be required to perform service described in the following sections. Sections 4 through 14 describe parts of the motorcycle, grouped according to location.

Find the section you want on this page, then turn to the table of contents on the first page of the section.

Most sections have an assembly or system illustration, service information, and troubleshooting for the section.

The subsequent pages give detailed procedures. If you don't know the source of the trouble, go to section 16, troubleshooting.

GENERAL SAFETY

  • CARBON MONOXIDE If the engine must be running to do some work, make sure the area is well ventilated. Never run the engine in an enclosed area.

WARNING

The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause loss of consciousness.

Run the engine in an open area or with an exhaust evacuation system in an enclosed area.

GASOLINE

Work in a well-ventilated area. Keep cigarettes, flames or sparks away from the work area or where gasoline is stored.

WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

HOT COMPONENTS

WARNING

Engine and exhaust system parts become very hot and remain hot for some time after the engine is run. Wear insulated gloves or wait until the engine and exhaust system have cooled before handling these parts.

USED ENGINE OIL

WARNING

Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods. Although this is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is still advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

  1. Use genuine Manufacturer's recommended parts and lubricants or their equivalent. Parts that do not meet Manufacturer's design specifications may cause damage to the motorcycle.
  2. Use the special tools designed for this product to avoid damage and incorrect assembly.
  3. Use only metric tools when servicing the motorcycle. Metric bolts, nuts, and screws.
  4. Install new gaskets, O-ring, cotter pins, and lock plates when reassembling.
  5. When tightening bolts or nuts, begin with the larger diameter or inner bolt first. Then tighten to the specified torque diagonally in incremental steps unless a particular sequence is specified.
  6. Clean parts in cleaning solvent upon disassembly. Lubricate any sliding surfaces before reassembly.
  7. After reassembly, check all parts for proper installation and operation.

Emission Control Systems

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) requires manufacturers to certify that their motorcycles comply with applicable exhaust emissions standards during their useful life when operated and maintained according to the instructions provided.

Source of Emissions

Combustion process produces carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. Controlling hydrocarbon emissions is very important since they react under certain conditions to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same manner, but it is toxic. Manufacturer Motor Co. Ltd utilises lean carburettor settings along with other systems to reducing carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.

Exhaust Emission Control System

The exhaust emission control system comprises a lean carburettor setting, with no adjustments to be made except the idle speed adjustment with the throttle stop screw. This emission control system is distinct from the crankcase emission control system.

Service Information Warning

Gasoline is highly flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions. Keep out of children's reach. Serious burns could occur if the exhaust system is not cooled down properly before servicing or removing components.

Work in a well-ventilated area. Smoking or allowing sparks or flames in the work area or where gasoline is stored can ignite a fire or explosion.

This section addresses the removal and installation of the body panels, fuel tank and exhaust system. After removing the exhaust system from the engine, always replace the exhaust pipe gasket.

For exhaust system installation, loosely fit all the fasteners. Always tighten the exhaust pipe joint nuts first, followed by the mounting. If you first tighten the mounting fasteners, the exhaust pipe may not seat properly.

Always check the exhaust system for leaks after installation.

General

Warning

When the engine must be running to do some work, ensure the area is well-ventilated. Never run the engine in an enclosed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that may cause unconsciousness and potentially lead to death. Run the engine in an open area or use an exhaust evacuation system in an enclosed area.

When servicing the ignition system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting sequence.On page 14-3. The CDI ignition system uses an electrically controlled ignition timing system. No adjustments can be made to the ignition timing.

The ICM may be damaged if dropped. Also if the connector is disconnected when current is flowing, the excessive voltage may damage the module.

A faulty ignition system is often related to poor connections. Check those connections before proceeding. Use a spark plug of the correct heat range. Using a spark plug with an incorrect heat range can damage the engine. For alternator and ignition pulse generator removal and installation

When the engine must be running to do some work, make sure the area is well-ventilated. Never run the engine in an enclosed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that may cause loss of consciousness and lead to death. Run the engine in an open area or with an exhaust evacuation system in an enclosed area.

  1. When servicing the ignition system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting sequence on page 14-3. The CDI ignition system uses an electrically controlled ignition timing system. No adjustments can be made to the ignition timing.
  • The CDI may be damaged if dropped. Also, if the connection has been disrupted, it may lead to a malfunction.If a conductor is disconnected when current is flowing, the excessive voltage may damage the module. A faulty ignition system is often related to poor connections. Check those connections before proceeding. Use a spark plug of the correct heat range. Using a spark plug with an incorrect heat range can damage the engine. For alternator and ignition pulse generator removal and installation, see section 10.

TOOLS

  • Peak voltage tester
  • Peak voltage adaptor 07HGJ-0020100 (not available in US)
  • Commercially available digital multimeter (impedance 10M/DCV minimum)

CONNECTION: Black/Red terminal (+) - Green (-)

Shift the transmission into neutral. Crank the engine with kickstarter and read the peak voltage.

PEAK VOLTAGE: 100V minimum

If the peak voltage measured at the ICM connector is abnormal, measure the peak voltage at the alternator exciter coil connector.

Disconnect the alternator exciter coil connector (black/red) and connect the peak voltage adaptor or tester probes to the connector terminal of the exciter coil side and ground.

In the same manner as at the ICM connector, measure the peak voltage and compare it to the voltage measured at the ICM connector.

If the peak voltage measured at the ICM is abnormal and the one measured at the alternator exciter coil is normal, the wire harness has an open circuit or loose connection. If both peak voltages are abnormal, follow the checks described in the troubleshooting chart (page 14-2).

TORQUE: 6N m (0.6kgf m, 4.3 lbf.ft)

IGNITION CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

Remove the seat assembly (page 2-2) Disconnect the Ignition Control Module (ICM) connectors. Remove the ICM from the frame.

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

ENGINE STOP SWITCH / IGNITION SWITCH INSPECTION

Disconnect the switch connectors. Check for continuity between the black/white and green/white terminals of the switch side connectors.

There should be continuity with the switch OFF and there should be no continuity when the engine stop switch

IGNITION TIMING WARNING

When the engine must be running to do some work, make sureEnsure the area is well-ventilated. Never run the engine in an enclosed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that may cause loss of consciousness and lead to death. Run the engine in an open area or with an exhaust evacuation system in an enclosed area.

Warm up the engine. Stop the engine and remove the left crankcase cover (page 10-2). Connect the timing light to the spark plug wire. Start the engine and let it idle.

  • IDLE SPEED: 1,700±100rpm

Read the instructions for timing light operation.

The ignition timing is correct when the "F" mark aligns with the index notch on the left crankcase. Increase the engine speed by turning the throttle stop screw and make sure the "F" mark begins to move clockwise. Install the left crankcase cover (page 10-8).

ENGINE DOES NOT START OR IS HARD TO START

Possible Causes

  1. Check the fuel flow to the carburetor - not reaching carburetor. Potential issues:

    • Clogged fuel line and strainer
    • Clogged fuel tank breathe tube
  2. Perform a spark test. If there's a weak or no spark, check the following:

    • Fouled spark plug
    • Faulty ignition control module
    • Broken or shorted spark plug wire
    • Faulty ignition pulse generator
    • Faulty engine stop switch or ignition switch
    • Loose or disconnected ignition system wires
  3. Remove and inspect spark for a flooded carburetor. Check:

    • Choke valve closed
    • Air cleaner dirty
  4. Try normal engine start procedures:

    • Inspect for improper choke operation
    • Adjust carburetor if needed
    • Check for intake pipe leaks
    • Check ignition timing (look for faulty ignition coil or pulse generator)
    • Check fuel for contamination
  5. Test for low cylinder pressure and inspect:

    • Valve clearance (should not be too small)
    • Stuck valve
    • Worn cylinder and piston ring
    • Damaged cylinder head gasket
    • Seized valve
    • Improper valve timing

Possible Causes

  1. Raise the wheel off the ground and spin - if the wheel does not spin freely, check:
