Had my new Super8 150 out for a ride today and have just started taking her up to full throttle for little bits. Noticed it sounds about the same until I hit about 50MPH on the speedometer. When I throttle up from there to WOT it starts to sound really deeper and throaty (as best I can describe). Is this normal? Also the last 1/3 of the throttle to WOT only gives me about 5-8 MPH. Is this normal too? I'm 6 feet tall and 230 lbs and getting 55 MPH GPS out of it so it is performing as it should as far as top end (I think) but that last 1/3 of the throttle doesn't seem to do much.
I read that during the last 1/3rd of the throttle on most scoots the squirrels only have one drive foot on the belt at any one time.
Yep, they're pretty much airborne at this point.....
To get more speed, you need to buy a bigger scoot so that that 'final 1/3rd' is closer to 80mph, than 50mph.
The squirrels will thank you to remember this. (hence, the 'howling')
You're welcome
