I updated my top post. I have no clue. I'm bringing it in for its initial 200 mile service. I think there's an issue with pilot jet. 1/8-1/4 throttle is really odd and groggy. Idk if it's not getting enough gas or too much. I should be able to tell my checking out the spark plug. It almost sounds like it misfires when it is on the center stand and you give it 1/8 throttle. It bucks and shutters. So. I let it sit for 12 hours before trying to start it again. I told the dealer that I want a thorough inspection of the carb. I also noticed I'm getting more like 55 mpg's. Which seems low. Anywho. I still love the little bastard. It's perfect for my needs. I think I'm gunna start saving for an gt300.

Yeah, I've had a couple of quirks with my Super8, but it's still the most fun I've had in a long time. Plus it's been my only transportation since I got it, rain or shine.
And I'm with ya!  The 300gti is my goal for next year sometime.

Keep us posted when it gets fixed. Never know when one of us may run into the similar problem.
