New mopeds suck, my Dad told me how much fun he had on his fs1e. I was stuck with a boring scooter restricted to 30mph, personally I think modern scooters stuck at 30 are dangerous I almost got knocked off countless times by impatient car drivers. Looked like so much more fun beeing a teenager in those days lol.
You're not wrong. That's why mant 40 somethings are buying them back and restoring them. Although we're all around 5 stone heavier and years older, you syill get the same feeling when you're sitting on them again.Happy days :)
Most new 50cc moped/scooters, have regulated top speed, due to laws in several states that allow anything under 50cc to be driven without a motorycle indorsement, tags or insurance. I would check to see if yours is regulated. It would be a flat washer or spacer that prevents the CVT from expanding to its fullest.
@p0ngl3 definitely agreed with you. The reason they restricted them was that manufacturers such as Fantic were producing mopeds that would do 70mph (with a 12bhp race piston) and most 1976 peds would do over 50mph. Restricting them to 45mph would have been much safer then you can keep up with traffic in town
great video , ive got a rd350lc beast 1981 and ive fitted the YPVS system to it and it runs as sweet as a nut and fully revs out and is great at all speeds not just flat out !!love them
I still have the black LC in the dvd and a kenny roberts one as well. I have another project one in boxes with a tuned ypvs engine still awaiting restoration. Will I ever get round to it???
that widowmaker is sure fine.
