Title: Please help me with my moped
Post by: Ginmeow on September 10, 2022, 04:42:02 AM
I recently purchased an used Like 50 2T,  moped is beautiful but there is a problem with accelerations,  moped goes 0-15 no problem but when the speed reaches 15 -24 range acceleration ridiculously drops until it goes up to 25 mph it speeds up again to top speed of 28 -29 mph.  BTW the speed restrictor is installed,  Could it be restrictor causing the problem? If so how do I uninstall speed restrictor?  My dealer won't do it for some reasons.  :'(

  Check YouTube for videos on de restricting your 50. There're plenty of them.

3 restrictions on this bike.

Variator boss, carb jet, and muffler.  Easiest thing to do is buy a new variator because they usually come with a new drive boss.  You will need an electric impact wrench or figure out a way to hold the variator while you unscrew the variator nut.  Upgrade the carb jet (search this forum for size).  The muffler can be left alone but to de-ristrict it you can cut off the extra emissions tubes and weld the hole shut.
