Title: super8 2t bike update 45mph smooooothly
Post by: agoncalvesjr89 on August 18, 2016, 05:55:00 PM
2013 super8 2t.        Stock carb jetted at 86 (slightly lean throughout but perfect WOT) - stock air box, snorkel removed.   NAraku standard variator, 7.5 grams. gates belt 2mm slightly longer than stock, Tecnigas q tre exhaust.. The exhaust and variator, with perfect running jet size gets me to 45mph now.... with heavy 7.5 weights the takeoff isnt explosive (like it was when i had 4.5 grams) BUT it allows me to live over 40 mph comfortably, and still have a range of smooth acceleration and power up in the high mph... the 88 main jet makes for a nicer richer mid range, but at WOT it runs rich and gurgle's -- it didnt Wine up like it does with the 86.......88 main jet brought me to 43 ,,, and sounded literally like it was gargling down gas. 86 = fine. Stock clutch completely,, I have torque spring and clutch springs but i dont need them in their yet. the mix screw, idle and throttle cable are all as tight and tuned as possible. I have a 20mm Kymco super 8 Intake manifold, gasket, spacer and a 19mm no name brand 2t carb off ebay.. Im going to see what the bigger stuff can do.. but 45 mph with stock 50cc cylinder and carb and air box.

Thanks for sharing. Is it air or water cooled?

I have not done anything to the pilot jet except clean it.
The main jet is all i have to work with -- the needle is
Non adjustable.. Which is a problem for me now.   And the bike is air cooled

Think I'll go back to the stock pilot jet and see if it helps my idling and starting problems.

What was the retailer you bought your belt from? Having a hard time finding one for my same year super8. Thanks
