REVIEWS - Kitaco Super Coil - by West Anderson

If you’ve done just about everything you can think of to your bike and are still looking for that little extra something, you should check out the Kitaco Super Coil. I just installed one on my bike and gave it a good test run, and it's pretty amazing how something so simple can make a nice difference.

Before I installed it, my bike wasn’t revving quite as fast as I liked and could have used a little more pull through the power band and going through the gears. Also, according to my plug readings, it was a little on the rich side, meaning I was getting a good amount of fuel in the combustion chamber but just couldn’t burn it all.

After installing the Super Coil, I instantly noticed my bike had a crisper throttle response and revved up much quicker. After some more riding, I noticed further that the bike definitely has more pull through the rpm’s and seems to have more over rev power so it pulls longer. After some hard riding, I decided to pull the plug and see how it looked. As advertised the coil makes a stronger bigger spark and did burn more fuel. My plug color had changed from a darker black, to a much nicer tanish white which means that it is right on the money now and getting the most out of the fuel its pulling in.

For $54 from www.minibikeoutlet.com, the cheapest I’ve found it, this is certainly a nice addition to that race motor where your trying to squeeze out that last ounce of power.

About the Author: West Anderson - I have been riding dirtbikes since I was 6 years old and have never been off a bike since. I got into 50's about 2 years ago when I acquired a 1977 Z50 from a storage garage. Had the Z for about a year but I really wanted a xr50 bad once I started seeing trick ones riding around and I found out more about racing. So I sold my Z and found a used 2002 stock xr50. I rode stock for a couple of months. Meanwhile, I became a member of PlanetMinis and started learning everything I could about 50's and all of the aftermarket companies and parts available at the best prices. I now have vast knowledge of 50's, what works, what doesn't, and can pretty much diagnose any problem that you may come across. Currently, my bike has a large amount of aftermarket parts on it and about the only things left stock are the frame, hubs, engine cases, crank, and tranny. I am starting to race my 50 as much as possible. Hitting as many local races here in Florida as I can, and I have done very well in my first couple of races. I ride and practice on it everyday and am always trying to find ways to run it into a corner harder and lean it into a rut further just to gain that edge.
