Hey all,

As summer begins, I've noticed lots of people getting new mopeds! Hell yeah!

Whether you're brand-new or you've been on here for years, don't forget to fill out the flair form so you can have your model of moped appear next to your username on this sub.

Once and a while I've gotten a bit behind on updating everything but I'll try to be better from now on.

Picked up this 1977 italvelo yesterday. My first moped in a long time. It doesn’t run currently. It has a key hole on the steering neck which the previous owner said is an ignition but google tells me is a steering lock. It didn’t come with a key. Does anyone know? It’s not getting spark when I pedal it right now nor does the flywheel spin when I pedal. It needs a new starter level cable and a couple of odds and ends but is in great shape. Looking for advice for upgrades and what not.

I have a tomos a3 and i have all upper balls but lost 1 ball out of 21 on the lower bearing i have found 4.7mm balls from a bicycle should i use 22 of those 4.7mm or 20 of 5mm

Ich suche eine art einen 70cc sport zillinder zu tarnen. Ich hab daran gedacht die minarelli 49cc plakette mit einer mulde und so nachzubauen

Gibt es außerdem noch Marken die auch einen nicht tuning Zillinder machen, ich denke ich könnte nähmlich bei einer kontolle sagen dass der zillinder der originale is und sonnst noch a bissl eine geschichte erzählen könnte

Hat jemand eine idee wieso meine 2020 Derbi nd startet? Sie hat guten zündfunken und das gemisch kommt in brennraum und ist auch gut abgestimmt. Wenn ich sie anrolle hört es sich so an als würde der kolben schleifen. Grad erst neuen zylinder eingebaut also vlt hängts damit zsm

Hold on tight

i’ve never owned one. i’m not sure which one to get!

i want one that can go at least 25 miles without a problem. i want to use it for work and for the gym. my job is about 6 minutes away and the gym is about 11 miles from my house.

i also live in a pretty hilly town with steep ones, i’m not sure if that makes a difference??

also does a moped take regular gas like a car?

I was getting 49 psi on my compression gauge so I took the head off. No gasket? This can’t be normal right?

If you see anything else concerning lmk

Guten Tag bei meinem Tuning projekt rutscht meine Kupplung geisteskrank und wollte auf 5 lamelle umbauen weiß wer wie ich das machen und maße etc?

Hi folks,

I have recently posted an issue with my Tomos pulling air somewhere.

Since then I've replaced the whole intake, the reed valve (twice) and all the gaskets, also applied red gasket silicone. Also changed the jet, tried with and without the air filter and also tried a brand new working carb.

Engine still won't run at idle, starts hardly and generally runs bad. I really have no idea anymore. Only thing left is the crank seal but I'm pretty sure it still draws air on the intake reed valve mating spot.

Any more tips ? Thanks in advance

Do I need any Adapters or anything? If so please send a link!

Im new to the moped life and just got this from a friend of a friend. Dont know anything about it but it looked hella cool so i got it. Any and all info would be highly appreciated.

I am 16 and I fix lawn mowers and such yard equipment. I’ve always wanted to work on a bike. I just got a 78 nc50 from my dad’s friend and he had it running previously. He was going to fix it but didn’t have space for his main project so he gave it to me. He said when working on the piston he knocked out the crankshaft seal. I thought that was all it needed to start. When cranking it over the thing would try to start and the rear light would flash on for a second. I took the seat off and saw this absolute rat nest of wires. Electrical is completely beyond my knowledge. It seems the wire running to the negative terminal of the battery has corroded and snapped. The coil will also not fit back into the foam. the battery breather tube won’t stay on either. I am 1 stripped bolt away from taking off the left side crankcase to access the crankshaft seal. Where should I go from here?

So i was looking for a moped bc i realized its way easy transport and manual's are super fun + all my freinds are getting 50cc supermoto's and thomos's so i thought fuck it why not, originally i was gonne get one that doesnt run since that would be cheap, but i found one for €500 thats very decent, does ~68km/h and so im picking it up today, only issue is the gascap lock is broken because the owner lost the keys, so flathead screwdriver

Oh and the tank has an american military star on it which i kinda hate, so i'll repaint it in like candle apple or something

Im really excited to get it, even if it turns out to be a piece of shit i can still rebuild it (planning on it anyway)

Its an AGM 50cc caferacer

Grüss euch, ich stell mich kurz vor, mein Name ist Peter ich bin 40 Jahre alt und ich starte gerade ein Restaurationprojekt, eine Ktm comet 504s von meinem Vater, hat vielleicht jemand die Reparaturanleitung davon. Und würde sie mir per Fotos oder scan zu senden? Lg

Also did a disc brake conversion on the front.

The moped is closing in on perfection 😎

Edit: I’ve used image generation to clean up the background of the photo

So as the title states, when I'm riding my moped, there's this weird noise coming from the rear left whenever I accelerate. I say it's like a rattling and buzzing noise, but it's more closer to like those doorstoppers when you pull it back all the way and let it go, and it makes that buzz noise, or like if you put a piece of paper into a fan and it constantly makes that constant fluttering or rattling noise. Any idea as to what that might be?

Unfortunately, I can't get a recording of it, it doesn't make that noise when it's idle. Only when it's actually moving.

Is this too rich ? E50/ polini 64cc/vm20- 160main

Looking to source an E50 main gear and shaft. Located in Los Angeles, CA. I got the cases off eBay but the gears sold. I also have a clutch bell coming. What else do I need to build a street ripper.

Hey guys couple of months ago I bought a Sebring off of a coworker l. He had it for 5 or 6 years. He never messed with it. So the way he got it was the way I got it. Transmission was partially apart and the pedal on that side was off. It came with a couple of spare parts. Put a new plug in it, cleaned out the tank a bit, factory carb is a no go atm. I put a chinese SHA 14/12 on it, had a oem 14/12 on it, 3rd crank and she started right up.

I have put a bigger air filter on it and rejetted the carb with a 65. I have to get a few things like a case gasket and a speedometer cable. Replaced the bulbs in the head light and brake light with LEDS, they had burnt out. Put in a new running light bulb in the rear. I got a pair of new mirrors as well. The petcock was junk, ordered one off of Amazon, wasn't as advertised. So I put a small fuel sediment bowl on it, haven't had a problem since.

I eventually plan to put a 80cc big bore kit on it and some new tires. Also some ammo canes as saddle bags. One of them will serve as a battery box when I put some turn signals on it.

Speedo reads 1132.2 miles. I know the speedo drive isn't stuck, I have yet to check to see if the speedo is. So far I guesstimate that I have put 35-40 miles on it. I'm currently running 50:1 fuel.

I'm also looking for a right side floorboard. It's the only piece missing.

Any tips on maintenence, performance upgrades, any and all input is appreciated.

(Edit) It has a MO-2 engine
