Hi, new to this forum
Turned 16 a few months back, so as ive now started college I need transport to get there because its quite a treck away, so I got myself a Kymco Super 8 50cc 4 Stroke!
Just a few questions I would like to be answerd please
Firstly, the moped is only a 57 plate (so it was made, late 2007) and it only has 3600 miles on it! which brings me to my first question, usually (in the UK) the odometer is in MPH as that is the primary reading on most UK vehicals, but because the moped displays both KMH and MPH I dont no what the odometer is reading, is it 3600 Miles or 3600 Kilometers?
Secondly its not licenced or anything as I got it today (thursday) and I need to take my CBT test yet. I would like to know what speed the moped is capable of, Restricted. Am I right in saying about 30 to 32 MPH or just dead on 30?
Ive had a look round the forum and theres plently to pick up on about de restricing, but I was wondering about this Rev Limiter? Is this there just to limit the speed to 30 or is it purley like a car rev limiter and is there to stop the engine over reving and damaging itself? As I dont want to do this and find out the valves have been smashed to pieces!
Also what else is there that I can remove or change to add performance to the moped?
Cheers, Cardie
