..you can cut either of the pink wires that connect to your cdi...

..that will de-restrict the unit, and will allow your engine higher rpms....

It is simply cutting either one of the PINK wires going to the cdi. Don't waste your money on another cdi. When you cut it just tape up the ends so they won't short out. You will be very happy w/ the result.

Hi, you could do what I did and emailed customer services at MASCO, they are the distributors for Kymco in the UK. I asked them which wire to cut on my super8 50 4t and a guy came back 2 days later and told me what to do.  That way the info is straight from the horses mouth so tom speak!   No harrm in asking is there?

regards

Hi Guys and Girls, I'm finally back from holidays!

Alchemy67, I think the CDI on my Like 50 4T may be the same as yours. (My CDI is similar to the one shown in the photos posted by Neko, but my wires are slightly different and the sticker on the end has a different number - His middle number on the sticker is LHB3 and mine is LEJ2)
Can you please let me know what MASCO told you regarding the CDI De-Restrict method for your Super8 50 4T?
If you happen to have any photo's/ numbers of your CDI/Plug that would be a big help too!

Thanks!

Josh

He was told there is NO restriction on the cdi for the 2t model. Jb, post the wire colors going to your cdi. That will tell what has to be done

I think it goes to the automatic choke.

The two wires going to the carb control the bystarter (choke) if they are unplugged the choke will stay ON causing all kinds of issues. Also the people 2t used a totally different cdi setup than the 4t bikes, it looks different than the agility cdi where you can cut the case ever so slightly to derestrict. We don't have the 4t like or super 8 50 here in the US yet so I can't help much.
