2026 Kymco Super 8 50R
2026 Kymco Super 8 50R
The Kymco Super 8 50R puts sporty Super 8 styling on big 14-inch wheels with a fuel-injected 49cc engine — ride it in Florida on a standard Class E driver’s license with no motorcycle endorsement, no matter its top speed. A stable, fuel-sipping ride for Miami Beach streets.
Why riders pick the Super 8 50R
The Super 8 50R takes the sporty Super 8 look and puts it on big 14-inch wheels for a planted, confident ride. Aggressive bodywork and a taller stance give it real presence — it looks a class above its 50cc price.
Under the skin it's the most modern Super 8: a fuel-injected 49cc four-stroke for easy cold starts, smooth running and standout economy. Add a twist-and-go CVT, digital dash, lockable underseat storage and a flip-up backrest, and you get 50cc economy without the bland econo-scooter styling.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a motorcycle endorsement to ride the Super 8 50R in Florida?
No. Any scooter with a 50cc-or-smaller engine is ridable in Florida on a standard Class E driver's license — no motorcycle endorsement required, no matter how fast it goes. The 49cc Super 8 50R qualifies; you just need a regular driver's license. See our Florida scooter law guide for registration and insurance details.
Is the Super 8 50R freeway-legal?
No. It's a 50cc city scooter topping out around 35–40 mph — perfect for surface streets, not highways. For freeway speed, look at our 150i and 300i models.
What's the difference between the 50R and the Super 8 50X?
The 50R rides on bigger 14-inch wheels and uses electronic fuel injection for easier starts and better economy; the 50X has 12-inch dual-purpose tires and a carbureted engine. Both share the same sporty Super 8 styling and easy 49cc automatic.
What does the warranty cover?
A 2-year limited factory warranty, with all service done in-house at 1743 Bay Road by Kymco-trained technicians.
Can I test ride one before I buy?
Yes. Book a test ride or call (305) 538-7878. Bring a valid driver's license and closed-toe shoes.
