how is the super 9

[Moe_Wave]

Don't know but the people 50 is great well built.

have a buddy with one and he loves it! He said it was wicked fast from the factory and they come with a LONG warrenty period I believe 2 years... which is even better then the yamaha 1 year!

[Moe_Wave]

I'd buy one.

[Moe_Wave]

I see that the dealer in seattle has one on there web site for 950.00

[mopedmaniac]

kind of late i know but super 9 is the best 50cc scooter in the us its liquid cooled and easy to mod. its a sweet ride!!!

[Moe_Wave]

I want to ride one bad. Is there much of a difference between the 02 and the 05?

Only difference is the look of the gauges on the handle bars, minor asthetic change. Everything else is the same

[Moe_Wave]

Do you have one?

[KymcoPete]

I have a 2003, my brother has a 2005. 2004 to present is the updated model years on the Super 9

[KymcoPete]

here's a couple pics of my 2003 Super 9

below is a pic of my 2003 Super9 and my buddy's 2005 Super9

if you look closely you can see the slight difference between the handle bars and windshear setup. Other than that....they are identical.

We have about 20 or so guys with Super 9's in my local area

i found one in indiana, just gotta see if my dad will let me borrow his truck.. :)

that weird to see so many of those bikes in one area, i live in hawaii and i have never seen a super 9 out here. there are plenny zx50's but no super 9's.

Guys that buy full race motors for hondas for under a couple hundred probably arent the same crowd that buys $3000 scooters.

[Moe_Wave]

What are the mods if any are people doing to the Supper 9 and the ZX. I just want to ride one of those things. My local dealer dosen't even have them on there web site. They must be 4 stroke now or something. Are the 05 and older the ones to buy?

[Skullet]

the one i have my eye on is an 04, and its a 2-stroke.

Yup, we have quite a few S9's in our local riding club too, but not as many a as 20 (most probably around 7 or so.)

The S9 is fast enough as a 50cc, so most riders here don't even bother modding them.

where did you get this info from. i have a couple of friends that have paid over 5grand for a fully modded honda elite and a japan spec dio sr, these are 85 to 95mph daily drivers too (watercooled). guys out here pay big bucks for their bikes, its just that bigger scooters are not that popular out here.

[str8dum]

you missed the point. i bet there are like 100:1 beater scooters on the road compared to your few buddies with 5k imports.

we all know that you and your buddies are in the strict minority of the entire scootering population. I doubt George sells 3k$ scooters on a regualr basis but i bet teh 1000$ ones fly out the door.

[rydah]

come on a moped cruise and see how many high dollar bikes come out.

from lookin at the hawaii forums, there are a LOT of nice scoots down there!! buyin a zx-50 today apparently, and prolly gonna ask somebody in hawaii to build me a motor for it.

you will pay more to have a motor built for your bike then what your bike is going to cost you. if you go with a italian bore kit and get everything else taiwan and built it yourself you will yourself a lot of money.

im just afraid of the tuning process. i can afford to buy all the stuff once, but i cant afford to blow up a cylinder or two tryin to figure out how to tune it.

[rydah]

if you buy a good cylinder you wont have any problems with the cylinder, they can take some abuse.

[Skullet]

ive been doin some google searches, and found a few places that sell parts, but cant find any kymco forums other than this one, and no reviews or anything like that about aftermarket parts. does anybody have any links they could pm me?
