Super 8 150 / Re: New Super 8 150 NEED UPGRADE OPTIONS!
« on: February 11, 2012, 05:59:04 PM »
Awesome!  Thanks Guys.  I ordered the Kevlar belt, that's about all I can afford right now.  The UNI air filter should be my next adventure with my bike.  I do think that it needs to breath better first.

REPLY In REGARDS TO:
"Kevlar belt along with a Naraku High Speed variator and 2000 rpm clutch spring. That made a pretty big difference to me.

Most recently I replaced the stock carb and airbox with a Keihin carb and UNI air filter. still dialing in the right balance of performance and cold starting ability, but I love the new sound of the open air element."

Super 8 150 / Insurance

Well, I figure this is a pertinent topic...how to best insure my 2012 Super 8 150.  I have AAA in Southern California.  I'll let you know how it goes.

Anyone else use Progressive or another carrier?  Recommendations?  Costs and Coverage?

Thanks DSC,

That is going to be an undertaking, but I plan on doing it in stages.  I want to get LEDs in the EU turn signal ports.  I plan on splicing off the US turn signals and having them both 'flash'.   I can see what you are saying about more tear-down than meets the eye, but its worth it.

I can't wait to get a better spark plug, synthetic oil, kevlar belt...?  to boost the efficiency.

I got a new Red/White 2012 Kymco Super 8 150!  Thus far, I love it.  It's my first new vehicle ever, and I'm 32.
I am looking to do some DIY upgrades that you all have had success with.
Has anyone upgraded the lights to LED's?  Any recommendations for riding apparel?

Thanks!
