replacing engine
« on: September 19, 2015, 12:43:14 PM »
I have a super 2013 8 50, I bought a 2012 super 8 150 engine. How much trouble will it be to change engines?

A lot. Custom motor mount, custom shock mounts, custom wiring. One could do it, but much more work than just buying a150
2002 Kymco B&W 300; MRP 78MM "300CC", Naraku cam, Yoshimura rS3 exhaust, 17g Sliders, Yellow torque spring drilled airbox, stock carb #115 main #40 pj.

2001 "Yamaha" Zuma AKA MBK Booster; MHR OverRange, Dellorto 19mm BHBG, Polini "big" intake, RS-3 Rear shock, Stock cylinder.

BettinANDlosing said it: the two scooters are like from different planets.  There's nothing simple about such a swap.
