I'm going to try and fix the hose with some Flex seal.Put 3 or 4 coats on there and let it dry good between coats.

If that don't work the wetvac hose in the background probably can be sacrificed.

I have found just the hose on Aliexpress,two different kinds.One is the exact hose.

Model 1 might be a little thicker rubber than model 2 and then again you might could get model 3 to work.

Folks.. what's the deal on the 2020 Bull 200s? Are they coming with a pull start?

I saw this on another thread.

BTW, the pics on the tao tao page also shows different shocks.

Did you ever install the 2 inch spacers? If so, did you have to use longer bolts or do anything odd the get them to fit the alloy wheels?

Oh, did the spacer make much of a difference?

Thanks!

I had to get a new one also a few weeks ago. Getting it in was fun. Does seem to be much better quality. Hopefully it lasts longer. Mine didn't last very long at all.

Congrats on having what appears to be the definitive Tao Tao Bull thread on the interwebs. I bought one for my daughter back on Christmas 2019 and it vibrates so bad that she hasn't even put 20 hours on it yet. I just replaces a gummed up carb from sitting for a year and want to revisit this vibration issue. I see that people are saying the vibration improves with hours but how many hours are we talking? I am going to go ahead and replace the factory oil despite not having hit the break in hours yet. I already checked the engine mounts and they seem ok. The vibration happens in nuetral with anything above an idle and gets progressively worse with higher rpm. Any suggestions?

I also noticed my breather tube cracking. I bought one of these but noticed there is some sort of tube going into
the factory breather box that may be vacuum related. Not sure if it uses vacuum from the intake or if its just a way to get clean air....so not sure about the mod just yet.

I was wondering the same thing. I wanted to do that mid as well but just replaced my cracked hose. This may not be the correct size but was wondering if something similar to this would work?

Had my Bull going on 2 years with over 100 hours on it and it still vibrates to high heaven.I thought it would tame down some but it appears it is not going away.One of my nephew's son refuses to ride it because of the vibration.

I'm back to the split air hose coming from the air filter box to the carburetor,this time it has split right where it goes into the air filter box.Have gone ahead and ordered one from VMC and it should be here today.

Got my new air filter hose put on today,took me about 2 hours to get the old one off and the new one from VMC on.I had to take the right side motor brace loose so I could get to the hose clamp on the carburetor.Then I had to take the front air box bolt out and then loosen the rear air box bolt to let it move around enough to get the back lip of the hose inside the air box.The new air hose is more of a plastic,little stiff but I bet it will last.I had pictures but can't find them now.
