My super 8 150 (2015 model) always has some big bang/noise from the exhaustion pipe when starting up. It happens 2 or 3 times at the beginning then it's totally okay.
Is it the carburetor not working properly or something else? Thanks.

@kennygoh016, welcome here!
Banging and explosions from your mufflers side usually means a too lean gas/ air ratio.

 Could be a choked airfilter or your carb too lean regulated. Best way to find out would be an emission test in a workshop.

I would start to check airfilter and airways towards carb. Sometimes KYMCOs suck gearoil into its filter.

There is a transparent hose with a plug down under your motor, called "puke pipe"  this has to be emptied regularely from oil/ water residues.
Happy and safe scootering, Ruffus

Thanks.
I changed the airfilter but the problem still persists.
Need to work on carb.

Would check my scoots muffler too for any cloggings or condensate.
Tap valves correctely to be sure about  timing.
New sparkplug and cap together with a coil and cable sometimes work wonders.
