Super 8 / higher speed?

« on: May 11, 2017, 05:15:11 AM »

so I just got my super 8 50x 2016 derestricted (main jet, smooth boss, manifold washer removed) and I can only hit 35 on a flat. Am I missing something here? the mechanic said he was surprised it wasn't hitting 40. Any recommendations for air filters and exhaust?

Super 8 / engine sometimes dies kymco s8 50x 2016

Hey all,
I'm not much of a gear head, but I have been reading up on the forum and I removed a washer that was lodged in the tube from my carb to my engine. This was definitely an upgrade as my bike now has much better acceleration. However, when I am idling for a long time, for instance at a stoplight, and I accelerate my engine bogs down and sometimes turns off completely. Is this an issue with the jetting of my scooter or do I need to adjust the air/fuel mixture on the carb? If it is the latter, where can I find the screw to adjust the air/fuel mixture??

General Discussion / which cdi box?

« on: October 26, 2016, 01:06:10 AM »

Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with either of these cdi boxes for my super 8 4T. Currently it has a stock 8 pin model and I don't feel like cutting into it and voiding my warranty. She's a 2016 and I'm positive that the cdi is restricted because I can't get her over 28 downhill.

Super 8 / derestrict super 8 50x 4 stroke

« on: August 25, 2016, 03:53:21 PM »

Hi all,
I'm new to the form but was wondering how to go about derestricting the super 8 50x four stroke. I see a lot of topics on the two stroke but nothing on the four. Does anyone know of the restrictions in place on it?
