Sliders in my Super8
« on: February 20, 2016, 10:45:56 PM »
Nice day out today so I did some long overdue items to Bandit. Last year I ordered a belt, sliders, air filter and some odds and ends from Columbia Scooters. Well today I put in the three previously mentioned items and took Bandit out for a test run. Initial results are in and our forum member BettinANDlosing made a good recommendation on the sliders. Dr Pulley 1814 13 gram. RPM's are down and the top speed remained the same, maybe even slightly faster (1-2MPH). Stay tuned as I'll be doing a video showing my results in the next few weeks.

Im about to get the tach i ordered. My idea is to test before and after rpms speed and accel with oem rollers and 13gr pulleys. I own a like 125... im waiting your results.
I had them before also at 13gr but never did any testing just replaced and rode happy

I'm going to film a video on the RPM results from stock to the Dr Pulley 13g. Stay tuned in the future for that. Would be interested to compare our results. I did RPM checks at 20, 30, 40, 50 MPH.

Yeah it's a 2013 Super8 150cc. As far as torque and HP, I wouldn't know where to start to figure those numbers out. You need a dyno right?

My 2013 super 8 150 with 4200 miles is arriving in 2 weeks.
I'm thinking of replacing the clutch sliders and belt. Can you recommend a supplier in the USA and which ones to get

I put 13gram Dr Pulley sliders in my 2013 Super8. I wanted to keep the performance as close to stock as I could and it worked. My top speed is the same but slightly lowered the RPM's. I know this isn't what you asked for but at least you know what I did and what it does so you can compare.

Thanks Wayne
I have some hills to climb so what I am seeing from others, it seems as though 11 might be better than the 13 for me

With only 4200 miles your belt shouldn't need replacing.  I replaced my last belt after 10,000 miles and it barely looked worn.  I'd guess a stock belt is good for 12-15K miles, maybe more.   I'd stick with the stock Kymco belt.
