Sorry about the delay... I've been on the road for work all day. 

I love the scooter.  It's faster, obviously but it how its faster...

Soooo much more power.  I knew that at double the engine size as my modded a50 it would be stronger but its more than twice as strong.

So fast.  It hits normal traffic cruising speed VERY quickly.

I was actually scared the first 20 minutes I rode it.

The funny thing is at idle the scooter is so uncivilized.

it vibrates and jiggles and has a lumpy idle but get it going and its so smooth. Power all over the place.

I'll try to get a few vids up the next week or so but I don't think I'll take one while moving, too much power to try and handle.


But I'm getting a camer next moth that will change that...

Hey, glad you'r loving it.  Not sure what's up on the idle.  Mine can be a little rough on a cold day but not any more than my 2T did.  I switched to synthetic oil early on and that may be why it seems smooth.

Well congratulations Glopezz on your new Super 8 150, which color combo did you get?  I got the green/black.  But the blue/yellow NASCAR one is nice too.  Yes the scoot has lots of power and acceleration is very satisfactory.  Enjoy it.

Its yellow and blue. Im amazed at how fast and strong the acceleration is especially when you consider the size of the piston.

I was really hauling it yesterday...  got into a superman tuck, drafting cars...

fast baby...

put on nearly 100 miles yesterday just going back and forth.  I went halfway across San Antonio last night.  So much fun keeping and, and passing, traffic.
