Super 8 150 / Break in

Controversial I know. Looking for a preponderance of opinion. Soft as per the manual or hard like much of the available science suggests?

Super 8 150 / Gas Capacity
« on: October 27, 2018, 06:32:03 PM »
New 150X 180 miles. Almost time for the 200 mile service. Love the scooter so far, but MPG seems low - not even 60. And the gas tank is tiny. i appreciate the weight reduction, I live where many of the roads are dirt and gravel (A reason I went with this scooter) but seems like I need gas every ride .  .  . Just venting. Question; Will the MPG improve as the scooter breaks in and matures?

Super 8 150 / Back rest
« on: October 22, 2018, 03:58:26 PM »
I purchased my new Super 8 150 last week and could not keep the backrest locked in an upright position for riding or refueling. I removed and disassembled the back seat which was easy. I discovered it worked via a cam. The business surfaces did not match up perfectly and were slipping. I used a Dremel to resurface the cam so that they fit together well and voila! I now have a backrest which stays in place when riding . . . or refueling . . . which one has to do too much IMHO. I wish the gas tank was bigger. But other than that I love this bike so far.

General Discussion / Kymco Super 8 150X backrest

Just bought my Super 8 150 X. Cant get the backrest to stay locked in, What am I doing wrong? I know pulling it hard releases it. I'm trying to put it up ever so gently.
