The fastest restricted 50cc bike goes 30mph.

Thats what they are restricted to - as they are designed for 16 year olds and that's all they're allowed to go.

Exactly, if it goes faster than 30mph its not restricted. Do you mean whats the fastest de-restricted 50?

A mates RS50 (brought brand new a year ago) is restricted, just about hits 45mph on the flat, many geared 50ccs will pull over 30mph even when they are restricted, dont know why, they just do.

When they're restricted they're all the same, 30mph top speed that's the whole point of them being restricted.

haha, hes got a point. if you are looking at a derestricted bike, the gillera runner (2stroke) is a pretty good bike, good on hills etc. rs50s are cack, i can beat them on my speedfight. lol. and if u wana look like a gimp on an out of proportion 2 stroke "road bike" then get an rs50. but for a 50cc, i think scooters are the best for price, and they can be done up to go about 60mph.

ive got a speedfight 1, with 70cc kit on it, 70cc pipe and rollers, and i can push about 70mph on the flat.

but its ur choice. but all "Restricted" mopeds go 30mph, cos they are RESTRICTED!

Probably worth pointing out that (trying to) tuning a 50cc is going to make your insurance invalid, and you're not licensed to ride one with a big bore kit fitted so the police could become interested if they spot you, and your insurance will find out in the event of a claim as they want to find ways out of paying out so will want to check the bike over and will notice all the modifactions you've done and then you've got no insurance. Also worth mentioning that the improvement you'll make for your money tuning a 50cc is very very bad, so it's not worth doing really just save the money, do your test, then get something which takes tuning better.

Insurance companies strangely enough do look round for ways out of paying for a claim so was just letting you know that you could be caught out. The bigger the claim the more they look and if they find something then you're a little bit fucked.

They might be faster than the other 50cc bikes, but at what cost? Stupid money which is better saved and used on something where you get a much bigger gain for your money.

So if you tune an RS50 it will pull power wheelies? Yeah sure I believe you, honest. Laughing Laughing Laughing Are you actually trying to be serious in saying that? Laughing Laughing Laughing

Look better maybe but again at what cost? Those fairings will be very expensive to fix when it is dropped (and I use the word when as opposed to the one if as learner bikes do get dropped) and they don't really do anything for the bike other than that. Oh yeah, you'll look better on here if you use good spelling and grammar. Thumbs Up

An RS125 wont power wheelie. claims that you adjusted the gearing to increase its top speed indicate you have changed either front or rear sprocket to gear the thing up for higher speeds. this makes it even less likely to power wheelie.
speeds of over 100mph are indeed possible on a 50, however for the amount of money you would have to spend to acheive this you could buy an R1.
At 16 you should be doing 30-40mph to work and back to save up enough money to buy a half decent bike when you turn 17.

I know this is unlikely for anyone looking for a restricted 50, but they might want to know which is the quickest ACCELERATING.

Though for that matter, there can't really be much between them from 0-30...

An rs125 wont power wheely, but come out of the right corner at the right revs and the front end might come up a few inches, but not for long and it wont be that high.

Erm, that's still a power wheelie and unless you clutch it as you come out to corner or hit a bump in the road your front wheel will stay on the road which is the best place for it when you're coming out a corner.

I expect it is roundabout the same, up to 30 I can keep up with mates derestricted ped but after that nope!

Mine is still restricted yet I have got 45 out of it downhill.

Is it possible that after a certain amount of use the restrictor could be worn out anyway, even though it is only a washer in the variator? Confused

No to mention you look Soooooooooo gay on a scooter, I can't believe anyone would ride them, I wouldn't be seen dead on one, even when someone I know needed their scooter moving a few meters into the garage I refused to get on it, thats how gay they are.


Overcompensating much?

So Lorry Driver, when you blast them away at 55mph in 3rd gear, that's about 35mph by your other assumptions of how much speedos misread. Razz Laughing

And yes he does have a right to say any bike is cack. He may only have a ped, but he still has an opinion and if wants to voice it then no problem. Thumbs Up

And refusing to even ride a scooter a few meters when a friend asks you is very very childish. Laughing Laughing

ts50x0 so it did a power wheelie at high speed? How do you know he didn't just dump the clutch, and the higher the speed on any bike the harder it is to wheelie so I very much doubt a 50cc could power wheelie from high speed.

How can you be sure the rider didn't use the clutch?



Calling inanimate objects gay is pretty childish imo. From my prospective, riding a pretend sportsbike, which everyone knows is basically a moped with fancy plastic, is far worse than riding a scooter - It's expensive posing, that impresses no-one. I wouldn't have a scooter, but they're far more sensible than these 50cc "sportsbikes".

If even the rider had tried to use the clutch then on an RS50 they'd need to be going very slowly to clutch a wheelie on it, so I doubt that ts50x0 is telling the truth.
