Super 9 / Re: Hessitation when full throttle from stop

So I took it out today for a ride but can't give it full throttle. Could CDI cause this ?

Hello all. Finally got the thing to run with a brand new stock carb. runs and idles fine, but when I try to pull off from a stop i need to feed the throttle easy otherwise it bogs down badly. Thoughts ?

Super 9 / Re: Stock Carb - Leaking coolant
« on: February 21, 2023, 05:51:55 PM »I can get pictures of mine. Ill be changing out my final gear box today. You can bypass the coolant lines. Its a line in and. Line out. From my understanding it goes from head above thermostat to carb. Carb to bottom of tank. Uses t stat and water pump to send the fluid thru the carb recirculatimg tank. I've got the whole circuit blocked off from tank to head and no thermostat right now. I have a fender washer inside the thermostat housing until I get a head that doesnt leak.
That would be awesome if you could post that pic. Thanks !!!

Unfortunately it did not. I'm so discouraged to not be able to find anything substantial on these older scooters. This is the perfect scooter for me or my wife to tool around on, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to find anyone to work on it. The guy I have now has worked on 2 stroke bikes but not old scooters so while some things appear ok to him, in fact he's not sure. I'm sure at this point it just requires something simple that we just can't see. I now have fuel flowing out of the tank not requiring the vacuum valve since it is manual shut off. I think we just need to know exactly what fuel line from the tank goes to the carb, the oil injection line and the coolant line. I'm pretty sure he just has the lines not connected properly in the correct spots, hence the leaking coolant in the carb. I'm guessing that maybe the coolant line is connected where the oil injection line should be or maybe even where he has the coolant line is where the fuel connection should be. If there is a picture someplace that should the line from the fuel tank to the carb, the line from the coolant to the carb, and the line from the oil injection to the carb. Everyone here has been great and I appreciate all your help. Thank you again !!!

Super 9 / Stock Carb - Leaking coolant
« on: November 22, 2022, 06:17:14 PM »
I have a friend who has been working on this for me since I'm not a 2 stroke person at all and know nothing about scooters. Previously someone I knew tried to get it running and messed up the carb, got a eBay special. Got it running and after a little bit started to starve for fuel at high RPM. Nothing he did made it work. Finally I just brought the scooter to the new guy to get running. He came highly recommended with 2 stroke knowledge. We got the new STOCK CARB installed, replaced the vacuum fuel petcock with a manual petcock. I think that may have been the issue with it running out of fuel at high RPM. So now we have a BRAND NEW CARB and manual petcock installed. He told me that coolant was leaking out of the carb. I think he may have the coolant line on the wrong place of the carb and should be a fuel line connection. The other question, is how do I know which nipple the coolant or the fuel goes on? Finally can I just block the coolant line to the carb ? I lost the whole summer trying to get this running, but I would love to have it all sorted for spring. Thanks in advance

Super 9 / Naraku 19mm v.2 Carb
« on: August 02, 2022, 02:28:48 PM »
I have a brand new Naraku 19mm v.2 with 24mm clamp fixation. Will a Malossi 23mm intake allow me to install it ? It looks like the intake will slide into the engine side of the carb and allow the clamp to be tightened, but having not done this before I am nervous so not to damage the new carb or to be able to return it. Thoughts ? Anyone do this before?

Super 9 / Re: BBK Guidance Needed!
« on: August 01, 2022, 07:42:43 PM »I know this is an old post but hoping you respond back with how your build went. Most of the reading I've done indicates you can use a stock carb but would benefit from something 17.5mm or larger.
I ordered a 19mm Naraku from racing planet. I'm just waiting for the intake manifold to mount it to my scooter to arrive. Once I get it running I'll post back. If not I'm gonna order the stock Naraku 17.5 mm carb

« on: August 01, 2022, 07:40:18 PM »Ever find a manual shut off that fit? Was thinking of doing the thing in my current build. Not having the same issue but would rather have no vacuum to worry about.

Super 9 / Re: Does anyone still run one of these?
« on: July 07, 2022, 05:15:29 PM »I'm not familiar with those...is that a 2 stroke or 4? Nothing wrong with a well kept, older scoot. Properly taken care of these things will last a long time.

Super 9 / Does anyone still run one of these?
« on: June 17, 2022, 08:03:07 PM »
I was able to pick up a 2005 Super 9 LC. I am in the process of getting it to run. It only has like 7800 km on the speedometer. Does anyone still run one of these that is this old? The scooter is in awesome condition and for even a few hundred dollars it would be worth it as far as I'm concerned to get it road worthy. Just wondering if there are any quirks or things I should look out for ?

Super 9 / Re: Fuel Tank Fuel Valve
« on: May 11, 2022, 05:16:10 PM »Hardware stores like Ace, Lowe's, Home Despot have brass petcocks that could be adapted. Motorcycle salvage yards probably have fuel tanks with manual valves.Ah yes I was able to remove a vacuum valve from the tank, but it looked like it went to the carb. That's the valve I'm try to get rid of and just use a manual valve to leave open all the time since you can't get to it easy. Then put a second petcock after the fuel filter so I can shut the fuel off and on
Are you sure it is not the vacuum operated fuel tank vent valve that is sticking? It will produce the same symptoms.

Does anyone know where I might find a manual fuel tank valve? I can't find anything.

Super 9 / Re: Fuel Tank Fuel Valve
« on: April 06, 2022, 03:36:12 PM »It depends on your machine. Some have steel tanks with threaded couplings, but for the last 20 years most have nylon fuel tanks with press-fit couplers with o-rings. These are harder to modify like you're describing because you can't thread in a new valve.
Machine is a 2005 Kymco Super 9

Super 9 / Fuel Tank Fuel Valve
« on: April 04, 2022, 09:36:23 PM »
Good evening. Is there a mechanical fuel shut off valve that will fit the fuel tank so I can get rid of the vacuum valve? I think it's sticking and under load the carb is running out of fuel at high RPM. It then bogs down and stalls. It will restart after a few minutes but it seems to me there is no fuel as when you crack the throttle it just bogs down when trying to ride. Yet several times it has seems ok and that's what makes me think that valve is sticking because the NEW fuel filter looks like there is only a small amount of fuel in it. I would think if fuel was flowing properly and the carb was not running out of fuel the filter would look pretty full, no ? Fuel filter is new and carb is also new. Thank in advance,
