Hey all, cbt next tuesday and still not bought a moped. I have around £500 to spend, But I keep seeing on ebay nice mopeds but with maybe high mileage?

I mean what would a advanced motorbikes class as high mileage?

and is there anything I should look for with this budget or any other good advice you lot could give?

thanks!

Do you need a ped? (I.e. you're 16 and you want 50cc that doesn't do more than 30?)

If you actually want a scooter you're probably asking in the wrong place. Expect to be bombarded with recommendations for CGs.

£500 isn't a lot unless you really know what you're looking at mechanically. You're either getting something incredibly high mileage or old or both.

Peugeot Speedfight 2, Yamaha Aerox, Piaggio Nrg, Piaggio Zip, Aprilia Sr, and thats about it. Again you will need to know what you're looking at at that price bud. Good luck though Smile
