Please help me. I have a 2006 Tank Urban Racer 150. I can't seem to find body parts for it. I need a face panel and a lower face panel. I have tried ordering them but keep receiving wrong parts. Thanks for your help..

I guess they are, I had bought a windshield from them and it was less than half of what others had it listed at but I have a different scoot so there you have it...

Thanks so much for answering.. The Jonway looks almost exactly like my scooter. Are the parts interchangable? I will check these links and get back with you guys. As soon as I figure out how to use this forum. I will try and post a picture of the parts cuz my scooter is not really all put together. Had a run in with a cart corral at grocery store..  |

some plastics { tuperware} are interchangeable,
it all depends on where the mounting points are.
i wanted to totally change styles last summer.
nothing would work and im not a good enough welder to add
mounting points, plus from what i understand, welding on theses scoots is not recommended. metal is to brittle or something.
try and find your exact scoot and then get the tuperware.

Tanks are often the same as Jonways but don't put the Chinese creativity in too small of a box. They can sometimes take liberties from factory to factory on the same bike I hear...

The problem is that they quit making the scooter and discontinued the parts.

Had a run in with a cart corral at grocery store.. the forum is pretty easy posting pics is hard till you understand how theres a good section on the home page "new members, rules etc etc" then 1/2 way down that page theres a thread called posting pics and vids hope your ok, them cart corrals can hurt |

Yes that is the problem that I am having companies tell me that they have the right part only to get the wrong one. Gets expensive sending them back. They say it's for the Urban Racer but there is no way that it was going to fit there were small but significant differences and at times they were not even close.

tank urbans are discontinued ?
wow didnt know that,
but
chinese companies build the same scoots and give different
names to a lot of them
maybe your best bet
is to tak good detailed pics of your scoot
where u need the parts, etc
and e mail some of these link winn and i gave you
and see if they can help
before you order

Thanks for new member help info. I will certainly need to read up on it.. Yes I am fine. It was a strange incident. The bike tipped over and I had hold of the throttle handle trying to upright the bike as it was falling away from me and well the handle came off and the bike took off by itself and it was sooo embarassing.  |

TT 150 21B or YY150T-22 or something like that

and it was the wrong side of the seat bucket

you may have to get a plastic repair kit
and repair them yourself

I am not familiar with the plastic fix kit. I was thinkin about taking them into body shop and see if they can fix them.

You would be amazed how well plastic epoxy and superglue will work on these panels. Some people actually weld the plastic back together...

Just cracked front fender and lower front fender couple pieces off it but sawed the part off the bike so there is a gap where the two should meet bout 1/8 inch.

try either winn's suggestion of epoxy and super glue
and if that doesnt work well
then i guess you can try the plastic repair kit
find that plastic tag which gives you the exact model number
that will help you alot
