I just bought a Super 9 AC, and love the little machine, but I am dissatisfied with it's top speed of around 35mph...

I'm wondering what I need to get this puppy to do an easy 50, and where I can get it. My brief research suggests I need a new exhaust, which I found here; http://www.sip-scootershop.com/pages/index.php?PORTAL=Froogle&COUNTRY=US&ID=21012&PORTALID=0&EXPLODIM=px&_requested_page=%2Fpages%2Fdetails.php

Is there anything else I need? And are there any U.S. based dealers for this stuff?

Thanks!

Don't go for the Leo Vince...they're crap! Get a Technigas pipe!

The best place for Super 9 parts in the U.S. is Moped Hospital in Key West.

George,

I'm sorry if the truth offends you. Many people do not realize that what appears to be the engine on a Venox is not. I was fooled until I saw it mentioned in a magazine article.

I'm sorry, I know your 'old' but this was a pretty dumb comment and I'm not even a Venox rider. What do you mean 'what appears to be the engine on a Venox is not'? Faux fins regardless, of course the engine is the ENGINE!! How do you think it moves, pedal power!?

I hate the whole 'trying to look like a Harley' thing, too. Why is that? Are Harley the only company allowed to build cruisers?

Besides, a friend of mine bought a brand new Harley Softail in January. Quite apart from the fact that it was ridiculously over-priced, it's been back to the garage for repairs 4 times in less than 5 months. He's had numerous electrical problems, the speedometer has been replaced twice, it's had over-heating problems, loss of power when hot, and the choke had to be replaced after a month. All in all, I think it's only been on the road about one month out of five!! He's none too happy at the moment!

I have to say, if the Venox ever comes to Japan, it will definitely be my next bike. I love what ObxBiker has done to his Venox, amazing job! If we don't get the Venox over here I'll probably go for the Magna 250 that the Venox was based on. But there are a few little things that I prefer about the Venox...I'll keep my fingers crossed...

Haven't seen any for the People, but there are some for the Grand Vista, so you might be in luck...

Well, I don't have any first hand experience of that company but bear in mind that their scooters are all imported from mainland China. Even if the build quality is better than most of the Chinese scooters I'd be concerned about parts further down the line.

Kymco stock their parts in the countries where they sell their scooters. Whenever I've ordered a Kymco part it has always arrived the next day. Plus, if you keep your scooter stock, and don't do any radical mods, Kymco engines are pretty much bullet-proof.

I'd go Kymco if I were you!

hey all, im looking at derestricitng my super 9 AC moped. Does any1 know what i wuld need to do to it to get a speed of around 65mph or close to it?

The LC models will get to 65mph by installing an 72cc big bore kit, performance pipe, bigger carb, new variator, Arreche air filter and few other bits and bobs, but your AC model will be a bit slower.

Simply de-restricting your scoot will get you about 46mph, true speed, although the meter will indicate a higher speed because it's out by about 10%.

Hey 2hd, good idea.  I changed it to "Super 9".  Thanks for the input.

Where are you at in Asia? 

I'm in Japan, and I've had my S9 since January this year.

Thanks for changing the title!
