Technical Overview
2016 Kymco Super 8 150R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Kymco for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2016 Kymco Super 8 150R utilizes a 151 cc (9.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10.3 HP (7.5 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.6 Nm (7.8 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 68.2 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Super 8 150R measures 107 kg (236 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (10.39 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 787 mm (31 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,334 mm (52.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.92-liter (1.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.13 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 119 km (74 miles) between fill-ups.
